Pocketful of Miracles |
| As the seasons change, so do our lives. In
this unforgettable book, Joan Borysenko offers a unique, organic means
of drawing personal strength and spiritual succor from the wondrous
cycles of nature. Drawing on the ancient wisdom at the core of the
world's religions, the guidance of the four great Archangels that stand
at the gates of the Medicine Wheel, and her own deep mystical
experience, she has divided the book into twelve inspiring monthly
sections. Each reflects such emotionally significant themes as
Forgiveness, Rebirth in Love, and Spiritual Healing. And each provides
daily meditations, prayers, and affirmations that help you let go of
fear and realize the light of peace and compassion that dwells
throughout the universe . . . and within your own heart. |
