Grace, Guidance, and Gifts: Sacred Blessings to Light Your Way

Found this book to be a very valuable way to start the day!

I found this book very inspiring and helpful. The messages from Spirit in the Grace section emphasize the need to get out of your 'comfort zone' and expand your life and find more joy in it. This takes strength and courage, but the messages assure you that with God's grace you can do it, you can escape the ego and soul mind sets that have trapped you--the ego by focusing too much on the negative emotions, the soul by trying to figure out the meaning of every experience you've had, good or bad, which can become quite tiresome--and you can just live in the now, enjoying each moment, looking at life as an adventure, without constantly rehashing the past, or worrying about the future. The freeing quality of the spirit is further brought out in the Guidance section where the messages tell you to follow your 'inner light', your intuition, as it will lead you in the right direction for you to go. This helps you break away from being controlled by others, and to find your own pathway in life, becoming your true, authentic self. In the Gift section, the messages talk about the gifts that will be given you as you live more and more in the spirit. Your faith will grow, you will be kinder and more compassionate towards others, you will have the patience to let time and events unfold in a natural way, without trying to hurry or rush things and make them conform to your ego's demands, which can only lead to frustration and unhappiness. You will be more peaceful and calm, less emotional and dramatic. This book, as well as Sonia's other books, have helped me immensely to become a happier, more spiritual person, and I am grateful for the gift of Sonia and her books!

This book and CD have been life changing on many levels. Having been a seeker most of my life, it is always a challenge to keep your highest divine purpose and thoughts tuned into the Divine Source of all thought. I have been listening to the CD, which has one section of guided affirmations for each section of the book - Grace, Guidance, and Gifts. almost daily for about three months now (with headphones when going to bed or right after waking up).I am so grateful to God and Sonia for the blessings that this book and CD have opened up in my life.I learned about Sonia through Julia Cameron's book Right to Write, and every morning I turn randomly to a page in this book - Grace, Guidance, and Gifts, read the Message from Spirit, the Morning Affirmation, and the Blessing on one topic, then write three pages known as "morning pages" - a tool of Julia Cameron's. By writing about these deep affirmations and listening to the CD, it has been healing, inspiring, and life changing.

I LOVE this book!!! Having read hundreds of spirituality oriented books I chose this book as my Bible. I read it daily & it truly keeps me connected to Spirit & my life's purpose. Recently I backpacked through Europe and even though I had only a small backpack that needed to fit all my stuff (clothes, etc.) I chose to bring this book, as the only book with me in my pack. Sonia is a phenomenal Spiritual teacher/guide and she explains the soul & Spirit in the most easy to understand way that I have ever read, I too am a Spiritual guide/teacher and have gifted a copy of this book to quite a few of my clients and friends. I would give this book 10 stars if I could. A LIFE-CHANGING book!!! One of many of Sonia's fine works!!!

The Author brings us closer to God, Our Source, what ever way you want to describe it. The book opens up to our mortal and spiritual support system, showing us that we are blessed more ways than we can know. It opens our spirituality to know that we are loved and never alone unless we make a choice to be, howver; we can't fault anyone or anything but ourselves. There is a prayer that I read often that prays for our human family and too many times in the world of "I," "Me," and "Self," that we ever think about. Reading the prayer to give strength and hope to so many that work each day to make the world better opens our eyes to the family of humanity. The author has a gift called love!!

I considered the content to be inspiring and helpful...however, I wasn't comfortable with some of the text that I felt wasn't entirely positive...one example: "to move me today to have true authority of my life...". was excellent, but when the rest of the sentence followed with "...not enslaved, oppressed, and fearful of those who posture and take away my power" in my personal belief, those final words give energy to the negatve. There seemed to be a lot of "nots" throughout this work.The above is just one of the many examples. I also would like to comment that I'm finding the book inspiring and interesting and I shall continue to enjoy it.

This book is a great tool to use in a daily practice for spiritual growth. I am amazed at how appropriate the messages are and at the inspiration I receive by reading them. In my spiritual study group I am recommending that each participant use this book as a tool to practice being open and receptive to divine guidance.I purchased both the kindle version and the hard copy. I started reading the book on the kindle while I was traveling. But I like the hard copy better because I use it during my meditative prayer time to physically open the book to the place that is for my highest good that day or for a particular area of my life.Thank you Sonia for this gift to all of us.

I highly recommend it. I read in the morning a message from spirit along with the related prayer and blessings, this allows me to focus and be cantered as I start the day. I carry it with me as a reference throughout the day.

Having read the reviews for this book I thought I would give it a go, and being a great fan of Sonia Choquette I wasn't disappointed! It is a lovely book and starts my day well in just a few minutes.

very good

A lovely uplifting and comforting book that guides you through the day with messages mantras and blessings. I look forward to reading these every morning.

A grace-filled book for your bedside.
