Editorial Reviews

Review

The power of prayer to meet any need and to quiet a troubled heart is made evident in Nourishing Thoughts (Sacred Spiral, $4.95) by Mary Murray Shelton, a minister in Huntington Beach, California. This book, a graceful feast of affirmations, has a soul-nurturing effect in that each word seems to emerge from the authors own deep consciousness of unity. Small in format, Nourishing Thoughts is the perfect size for carrying in purse or briefcase, and there can be no better life-changing practice than feasting on ideas such as these. -- May 1996 - Science of Mind Magazine, winner of a 1995 Obie award

There is an old Zen statement that says, You may not be able to prevent the birds from flying over your head, but you can prevent them from making a nest in your hair. Likewise, we may not be able to prevent the limiting thoughts that are in the human condition, but we can prevent them from taking lodge in our consciousness.

One of the most powerful tools that we have is the affirmation which, when used sincerely and earnestly, prevents limiting thoughts from taking residence within our consciousness and ultimately assists us in moving to a prayer without ceasing attitude. These affirmations, written by Mary Murray Shelton, are absolutely wonderful for keeping our attention on what is real. If you use them, your life experience will change. -- Dr. Michael Beckwith, Founding Ministry Agape Center of Truth, Santa Monica, CA

Vicky White (Huntington Beach, Ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nourishing Thoughts (Paperback)
This scrumptuous little book is filled with delicacies for the spiritually hungry mind and heart. It is a feast of affirmations that provides comfort, peace, and the assurance that all is well. I always seem to open it to just the message I need to feel satisfied and content and replenished.

5.0 out of 5 stars A small and powerful treasure, April 19, 2000
By 
"tbourke" (Anaheim, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nourishing Thoughts (Paperback)
For those of us who believe in the power of affirmation but can't always find the words, Reverend Mary Murray Shelton's "Nourishing Thoughts" is a small but powerful treasure. This book provides the words for many of the circumstances of our lives which challenge and enrich us. I have found this especially helpful when in the midst of life my own clarity was too jumbled to put together a prayerful affirmation. In using the topic guide at the beginning of the book I could find an affirmation which spoke my truth before I had the words myself. Sometimes the affirmations expressed exactly what I needed to say. At other times, they served as a springboard, providing a touchpoint for my own expression. Each time I have referred to this book, despite its diminutive size and small portions, I have found the recipe for a full spiritual meal.
