4.0 out of 5 stars Very useful daily tool for self awareness and meditation, November 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Pocketful of Miracles: Prayer, Meditations, and Affirmations to Nurture Your Spirit Every Day of the Year (Paperback)

Joan Borysenko puts the tenets and practices of A Course In Miracles into a handy, consise, daily-use guide. I try to read it every morning along with my regular devotional and the little book with the powerful words sets the stage perfectly. This multi-disciplinary primer offers practical applications and meditations along with calendar-appropriate suggestions for spiritual practice. I recommend it to anyone who wants a blueprint for devotional work.

5.0 out of 5 stars A treasure of a book, September 25, 2005

This review is from: Pocketful of Miracles: Prayer, Meditations, and Affirmations to Nurture Your Spirit Every Day of the Year (Paperback)

If I were told that I could have only one book of my many hundreds, I think "Pocketful of Miracles" would be my selection. I first purchased this book several years ago for myself, and I have since bought a copy for at least fifteen friends and acquaintances.

The book is a treasure trove--valuable as a daily meditation guide and also as an introduction to numerous spiritual traditions. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the commonality of spiritual paths.

Beautifully written with a focus of igniting and expanding in the reader compassion, insight, tolerance, and knowledge, "Pocketful of Miracles" never ceases to add light and well-being to each day and to warm my heart with its richness and wisdom.

Thank you, Ms. Joan Borysenko, for this lovely gift you have given us!

This is a book that keeps on giving. I've been using it for over 8 years and still love it. I love its breadth, depth,inclusivity and practicality across a broad spectrum of religious traditions.
