When love is our guiding light, we can break through barriers to be of loving service to the world. Gaining the courage and confidence to stand up for what you believe in is not always easy, but it's fully within your reach.
Marianne Williamson
Image
On any given day, in any given moment, something could happen that opens up for you an entirely new path. Be still, be alert, be ready.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The soul force we need in America today, more than any other, is the spirit of atonement. We need to humble ourselves before God and ask forgiveness for the things we have done wrong. We need to ask God to forgive us for our arrogance.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Fear is trusting in your own power.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We shouldn’t use our own upset as an excuse for not helping.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Whatever we focus on is bound to expand. Where we see the negative, we call forth more negative. And where we see the positive, we call forth more positive. Having loved and lost, I now love more passionately. Having won and lost, I now win more soberly. Having tasted the bitter, I now savor the sweet.

Your future isn't programmed by your past it's programmed by your thoughts.
Marianne Williamson

I don't believe the United States is going through a midlife crisis. The United States is going through an adolescent crisis.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Just like a sunbeam can't separate itself from the sun, and a wave can't separate itself from the ocean, we can't separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of a vast sea of love, one indivisible divine mind.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Without nourishing our own souls, we can't nourish the world, for we cannot give what we do not have. As we attend to our souls, we emanate invisibly and involuntarily the light we have received.
Marianne Williamson
Image
By bringing the past into the present, we create a future just like the past. By letting the past go, we make room for miracles.
Marianne Williamson
Image
If you're getting your guidance about who you are and what to do with your life only from the external world, then by definition you'll be led away from your authentic truth. Your authentic truth isn't in the material world. It's counterintuitive, but you have more power in the world when you know you're not of it.
Marianne Williamson
Image
If we never take a risk, we'll never know the parts of ourselves that would have emerged if we had.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I trust life not because I trust the world, but because I trust the God who lives in my heart.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The issue is not whether or not you have that power, the issue is whether or not you use it.
Marianne Williamson
Image
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure about you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us.

Gandhi said the end is inherent in the means, which means you cannot create any more peace than you yourself have attained. An angry generation will not bring peace.

Every relationship, every situation is part of a divinely created and highly specific curriculum for your soul growth
