Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics from "You Are the Light" by Denise Rosier: "You change dust into gardens, pieces into peace, tears into fountains, chains into release. You are doubt into action, vision renewed, perfect creation unfolding in view. You hold all of heaven inside you, no matter what you go through and, if your dreams burn down to ashes, you rise again! You are the Light—the Light of...

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics from "Hallelujah Today!" by Denise Rosier: "Running till my bones are aching, pushing past the point of breaking, The road is long but I will make it, that's who I am. It's not the race but how I'm running, not who I was—who I'm becoming. Steady on, I'll finish strong on this path…. Every breath in me proclaims… Hallelujah Today! With every mile, I'm reminded, I ne...

Leddy Hammock "Ho-onopono Prayer"- Hawaiian prayer for resolving conflict and seeking peaceful resolution, as in the song, "In this moment," by Melinda Wood-Allen: I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Thank You. I love you.

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics to "Centered in the Storm" by Richard Mekdeci, Karen Taylor-Good & Richard Patier" "I close my eyes and calm my soul, I feel the Truth within me and I let It take control.  I'm centered in the storm and I know I'm not alone, The thunder is the voice of God leading me home. When I'm centered in the storm where it's always safe and warm, I see a beacon in the night k...

Leddy Hammock Lyric/poem inspired by "Leap of Faith" by Sue Riley (words by Sue Riley and Leddy Hammock): Long before the morning, not yet light enough to see, darkest before the dawning, Your love can still find me. When the wind's against my vessel and the seas are tempest-tossed, I see You walking on the water. I hear You calling me across to make a leap of faith. Well, You know that I have bee...

Leddy Hammock God loves me and sees me well. The place for healing to happen is right here, right where I am. Right now, in this very moment, is my healing time. Now is the time for me to go within and discover that I already know how it feels to be whole, how to heal.

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics from "Spirit Is in this Place" words and music by Denise Rosier: We have come together as a family. We have come here as we are. We have come with hearts wide open. We have gathered here in love. Spirit's in this place. We sing in celebration. We sing with words of prayer. We affirm all life as sacred. We declare that peace is here. Spirit is in this place . . . ....

Leddy Hammock What Jesus taught has everything to do with love. When we are kind, we know we are not alone. What Jesus taught has everything to do with love. I choose love, no matter what others do. When we put our differences behind us, the world looks new. What Jesus taught has everything to do with love. Love is our trademark. There's so much hope to hold onto, because what Jesus taught has eve...

Leddy Hammock You might win a battle, you could win a race. Out run your rivals, come in first place. You could lose your center in the push and the shove, or simply surrender and tune into love. Love's not a contest, it's just who we are. Both the light and the shadow are at home in the heart. Beyond the struggle, there is music to play, and songs to be singing at the end of the day…. Love knows...

Leddy Hammock "Used to be when things got crazy, I'd get to feeling low. But, I found out I can't let that phase me …. Sometimes we all feel disconnected…. It's kind of strange, but it's true: when everything changes, I can change anything. Turning the pages, everything's new. If life's little stages are teaching me anything, it's everything changes and I can change, too.

Leddy Hammock While I go walkin', you know I'll be smiling. The sun'll be shining,'cause all day long I'm gonna sing my song. I've got my problems, my problems, but not today. I've got no problems today."

Leddy Hammock We take to heart these mighty words of The Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr., spoken in 1963, in our pledge for justice and compassion in every facet of our human interaction and in our spiritual expression: "As we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead. We cannot turn back." "With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone...

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics by Daniel Nahmod to "Everything New" — "Bring it on — everything new, everything different, everything true. I am ready for my next thing to do. Oh, I know it's gonna be everything new. I'm through crying, I'm through waiting. I'm, through hoping against all hope. I'm through longing for something gone that'll never return. I think I finally learned to bring it on....

Leddy Hammock "I know who you really are – I see it in your eyes. Oh, you are a shining star – I know who you really are! Oh, I know who you're here to be – I see it in your eyes:  A light for the world to see – I know who you're here to be…. Oh, I know who you really are – I see it in your eyes.  Oh, you are a shining star – I know who you really are. I know who you really are!  (Don't try to hid...

Leddy Hammock "I'm letting go of holding on. God is my shepherd, I shall not want. I'm letting go of holding on. Seeking first the kingdom of God. I let go of the feelings that feed on lack and greed. I let go of the reasons keeping me in need. I let go of the fear that there's never enough. And I stop holding on, to what is not love. We breathe in, we breathe out, it's all give and take. They're...

Leddy Hammock "Long ago, a child was born . . . who brought the gift of hope to you and me. Even if you don't believe, there's still a gift if you receive it from the heart of the Child of peace. When a child is born, they bring the gift of peace, an offering from the universe for all to see. In my heart, there is a space, pure and sacred, warm and safe, where the Child of peace is born in me. And...

Leddy Hammock "In Bethlehem a manger waits, long ago and so today, Where hatred-weary people pray Love will come and lay there. And so do countless stables stand in hearts as harsh as desert lands, Rough shelters in the wind and sand, so Love will come and stay there –. Love that opens fists of hate, heaps of gold on beggars' plates, Love that shows a kindly face to enemies and strangers. And wall...

LEDDY HAMMOCK Search the sky for that star—star of light, star of love, bright enough to guide believers from afar. Let there be peace around our troubled world, peace within ourselves. We've traveled such a long way. Let us not forget what for. And when we gaze upon that star of light, star of love, we hope for the only gift: peace around our trouble world, peace within ourselves. Search the face...

Leddy Hammock "My Source of life is strength and wisdom. We thank You for helping us to endure and live through everything we've lived through. You brought us here, to this present moment. You've given us strength to find our way. Here, in this present moment, You've given us courage for today. We have courage for today. We live the good life, Oh, so sweet, and You're with us with every heartbeat....

Leddy Hammock God has prepared a feast for me and has set the table for me to enjoy every good thing. My mind set is to expect the best. In all my life, I give thanks in advance, expecting good and only good. I keep my table set. I believe that God's will for all people is good and only good. There is always room for more people at our table. We can always set an extra plate. Although we may say g...

"The whisper that I hear in my heart, telling me it's time to start To set my inhibitions free, become the 'me' I'm here to be. So, I'll act brave as if I am, act 'as if' until I can, live each day as though I know that what I seek is seekin' me, even when that's hard to see. I choose faith, so I believe, that what I seek is seekin' me."

Leddy Hammock "Thank You, God, for this world of infinite joy and vibrant love. I've known the blessing of a boundless flow of miracles. I marvel at the beauty around me and within me, inspiring me to cherish Who I am. Thank You, God, as I celebrate the gift of each new day, I experience renewal with each breath I take and I discover deeper meaning in the moment I am living, rememb'ring still more...

Leddy Hammock Divine guidance is my flashlight through the dark night of my soul. The light of Truth shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it. Spirit illumines my path through the valley of the shadow. The Christ Spirit is my flashlight in the dark night of my soul.

"Runnin' 'round fixing this and that, Giving it up to God and then taking it back. Just release and let it go. You don't even have to think about it no more. ….Get out of the way and let God do Its thing. You look like the weight of the world's on your back. Just take a deep breath and cut yourself some slack. All that drama ain't good for you. You couldn't change what is if you wanted to…. Get ou...
