Product Description
If there are situations, circumstances, or perhaps relationships in your life that you have been struggling to overcome, trying to work through, or doing your best to work around, throw your head back and declare to the universe, "Until Today!"

Whatever has been going on in your mind, your life, or your heart can stop -- right now, if that is truly what you desire. However, you must be willing to "do a new thing." You must spend a little time, each day, in devotion to the truth about yourself and your life. You must make a conscious approach to what you think, what you feel, and what you do. Devotion will clear up misconceptions that may have obscured your vision until today!

Bestselling author Iyanla Vanzant presents a new book of devotions for anyone on the path to spiritual empowerment. These daily devotions will create powerful changes in the circumstances of your life that have held you back and will place you on the road to personal strength and peace of mind.

Amazon.com Review
This book of 365 daily devotionals supports the time-honored adage, "Why put off until tomorrow what you can do today?" The charismatic spiritual leader Iyanla Vanzant knows how easy it is to stay stuck in "old sentiments, resentments, beliefs, decisions, agreements, judgments, and ideas that may have become habitual." Through these devotions Vanzant hopes to show readers that the easiest way to create change is to simply shift your attitude--today. "We often work so hard to get the things we want that we miss the fact that it is the landscape of the inner world that stands between us and true happiness."

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

5 out of 5 stars An Elf Whispering in Your Ear   May 23, 2008
Often espoused as "feel good fluff" - I LOVE this book! This woman's devotional written in a day by day format is an easy to digest, quick reference guide for anyone wanting to start their day out on the right foot with the right attitude and a go-get 'em philosophy. For anyone wanting an elf-like coach sitting on their left shoulder, whispering in your ear, this book is for you!

5 out of 5 stars Life Changing!!!   October 27, 2007
"Until Today" helped me get through the day at one of the toughest times of my life. I would read the daily devotions everyday, and it would motivate and heal the pain away. It drew me closer to the Lord and helped my prayer life as well. I am so greatful to you Iyanla Vanzant, for all that you do for people. You are a life changer. The world is better off with you in it.

5 out of 5 stars Best book you could ever buy   July 12, 2007
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Simply said, this book is amazing. It is straight from the mouth of God. I have purchsed this book for many friends in need of spiritual inspiration. I am about to buy another copy for myself since I have almost worn out the original. If the current day's reading does not resonate, ask God to show you something else, flip the pages and you will read what your soul needs. This is my favorite book of all time!!!!
