Freedom – Leddy Hammock
From lyrics by Sloan Wainwright to “I Am Free” — I am free, by the Truth in each moment, by the love heaven sent. I won’t walk like a slave today, chained to my regret My past and my future fade. I forgive, I won’t forget. I won’t talk like a slave today, suffering to survive…. I find myself alive. I am free, right where I am—a piece of the puzzle, a part of the plan.
Expect the Best
Leddy Hammock Negative expectations come to nothing, while positive and loving thoughts are manifesting now. Every good thought, like an angel presence, goes before me to make my way easy, safe, prosperous, and happy. I deny the stumbling blocks of doubt, fear, and worry, and instead I build up a strong and positive consciousness that paves the way to good outcomes. I…

Calling Father – Leddy Hammock
Inspired by lyrics from “Father’s Day” by Johnsmith In my heart, I hear my Father say that He loves me. “Like rain falling gently upon fallow ground. I felt the fields of my heart turn green on those few small words my father said to me. So, now, I try to say ‘I love you’ every chance I get. It’s funny how a few small words can run so deep, make a baby smile make a grown…

Room for Grace
Leddy Hammock Based on lyrics from “I Made Room for Grace” by Sue Riley and Melinda Wood Allen I live without making demands. I am happy, just doing the best that I can. When I stop resisting, I get what I needed – and so much more. Rather than insisting on my own way, I open my arms in surrender. Since I made room for grace, I just stepped aside and opened up…

Remembering
Leddy Hammock Highlignts from “We Remember Them” by Rabbis Sylvan Kamens and Jack Riemer: “At the rising of the sun and at its going down …. At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter, we remember them.” “At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring …. At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer, we remember…
