Behind every dark cloud there is an every-shining sun. Just wait. In time, the cloud will pass.

Whether we love, or close our hearts to love, is a mental choice we make, every moment of every day.

Love is to fear as light is to dark in the presence of one, the other cannot exist. So wherever there is a place of fear in your life, think of one thing - even if it's just a thought you can think-where you can generate love to cast out the fear.
Marianne Williamson
Image
There is no such thing as a faithless person we either have faith in the power of love, or faith in the power of fear. For faith is an aspect of consciousness. Have faith in love, and fear will lose its power over you. Have faith in forgiveness, and your self-hatred will fall away. Have faith in miracles, and they will come to you.

Many people who say they're looking for love are merely looking for superficial comfort. They're not looking yet for the true romantic adventure. For that entails a readiness to die to who we were, in order to be born again prepared for love, truly worthy of the romantic heights.

Things don't spiral out of control when we surrender them they spiral out of control when we try to control them!
Marianne Williamson
Image
As long as we remain vigilant at building our internal abundance—an abundance of integrity, an abundance of forgiveness, an abundance of service, an abundance of love—then external lack is bound to be temporary.

Your playing small does not serve the world. Who are you not to be great?
Marianne Williamson
Image
...you're on this earth with a divine purpose: to rise to the level of your highest creative possibility, expressing all that you are intellectually, emotionally, psychologically, and physically in order to make the universe a more beautiful place.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Some people think it's naive to think we can make love our new bottom line. What I believe is naive is thinking human civilization as we know it will survive another two hundred years if we do not.

Real liberation for men means that they can explore and integrate their feminine aspects of consciousness.

We love purely when we release other people to be who they are.

For many people, God is a frightening idea. Asking God for help doesn't seem very comforting if we think of Him as something outside ourselves, or capricious, or judgmental. But God is love and He dwells within us. We are created in His image, or mind, which means that we are extensions of His love, or Sons and Daughters of God.
