About this title: Mysticism is not for the special few, in Marianne Williamson?s world view, but for everyone. All we need are the proper guidelines to discover an internal connection to our higher source. EVERYDAY GRACE is a manual for mystics, offering a list of "tools" (in this case, 5 special thoughts to orient our attitudes towards God) and a "schedule" that takes the reader through a typical day, pointing out opportunities for spiritual growth and connection. The daily schedule outlines the types of events that can crop up in the course of a day, or a lifetime, that challenge our inner peace: horror ...

"There was some thought provoking things in this book. It was a little too generic at times. I liked that the chapters were short so the book could be read at a slower pace with time to contemplate the concepts."
"This is an extremely powerful book, especially if you're questioning your relationship with a higher power. I found Williamson's references to Cinderella and Harry Potter amusing and relatable. It was an easy read but that doesn't mean the content wasn't meaningful. Williamson chooses her words and her examples carefully; every idea she poses is meant to invoke a reaction. I keenly felt her points and was left quite thoughtful after I put the book down. The idea of "everyday grace" will stick with me and will hopefully make a positive impact on my daily life."
"more attainable than a return to love (which is a very good book but for some of us, presents a more long term plan). I read the chapter on Grieving at my mother's funeral as part of my remarks; I, as well as many others, found Williamson's words intensely comforting in our time of need."
"I found this book inspirational and enjoyable. There were a few bits that I didn't enjoy quite as much, but overall I would recommend this book. The author addresses spiritual practices without addressing them to any particular religion or spirituality specifically. For this reason, almost everyone can benefit from reading this book and will find it enjoyable and inspirational, which I believe was the writers purpose."
