Product Details
|
In the closing paragraph of each one-page devotional Vanzant names an old way of thinking and offers readers a new attitude to try on "just for today". For example, Vanzant writes, "Until today, you may have believed that you had to stay in the painful hole of hurt caused by the loss of a loved one. Just for today, make a conscious effort and choice to cover the hole and move on." Some might consider these devotions a fancy term for affirmations. Vanzant scoffs at the notion. Time spent in devotion is not a "New Age trick through which you can impose your will on God, the universe, or those around you", she writes. "Devotion is the reverent, personal act of surrendering your will to the Divine will". --Gail Hudson --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Loved It,
By thesavvybamalady "swblkdiamond" (Prichard, Alabama USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Until Today!: Daily Devotions for Spiritual Growth and Peace of Mind (Hardcover)
Sometimes, it takes me a while to really get to what this lady is trying to say, but I have to say that with this book, I caught what she was telling on the first try of this book. I will not say that I agree with everything she tells me. Nope I don't. And that is my opinion, but I thank God that she is out there trying to heal people. To be real, we need it. So, in essence, I say get it, you won't be disappointed, and perhaps you will catch something from the first time you read it as I have.

Inspirational, validating, & affirming!,

This review is from: Until Today!: Daily Devotions for Spiritual Growth and Peace of Mind (Hardcover)
This gem of a book is one of Vanzant's best works yet! The book is broken down into twelve sections that each deal with a spiritual principal. (Example: January deals with Life, July deals with Understanding, September with Trust, etc.) The readings for each day are truly inspirational, validating, and affirming for all of God's children! At the end of the reading is an affirmation or thought/Meditation that you can focus on throughout the day!! (I usually write about it in my own personal spiritual journal, once in the morning and once at night....to see how I fared!) If you are interested in growing as a person and a spiritual being, then this is the book for you! An excellent read that I have and will continue to recommend.

Everyday Meditation,

This review is from: Until Today!: Daily Devotions for Spiritual Growth and Peace of Mind (Paperback)
I really enjoyed "Until Today." My first exposure to it was in a yoga class where the instructor would read it to us during final relaxation. Some of the daily meditations are a bit long and have LOTS of references to God which I personally don't have any problem with. Overall, a great gift along with some "plinky" music.
