Sue Riley Let all the heartaches be forgot and never brought to mind. Let all the sorrows fade away. We’ll keep the good in mind. “And here’s a hand, my trusted friend, and lend a hand o’ thine. We’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet for the days of auld lang syne.

Leddy Hammock leddy-beach2-200x200Inspired by lyrics to “It’s a Wonderful Life” by Robert Anderson and Kelly Corsino: Stop! Look! It’s a beautiful sight! We’re here at the manger, in Love’s holy light! That same star shines, shines so bright! A lifetime of memories, feels like Christmas, all right! Joy to the world, with love, peace,…

Leddy Hammock Stables, by Peter Mayer 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…

Leddy Hammock Deep in my heart, I long to find the Christ. When the willful self cannot find the Christ, inner guidance reveals His presence. To the Christ Child indwelling every heart belong the gifts of Truth, Love, and Life. As I behold the inner Christ, I am not ruled by selfishness. I walk with the wise.

Leddy Hammock Even when there seems to be no outer way, there is an inner way. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall conceive and receive divine ideas. I am reflecting upon the message that Love brought: I am the beloved of God, born of a pure thought. Shelter me, Holy Spirit, whisper to me from above. So, forever my heart will hear it: nothing’s impossible…

Dell deChant Inspired by lyrics to “A Quiet Christmas” by Michael Gott “When there’s too much to do in too little time, my heart longs for peace.

Leddy Hammock (inspired by lyrics by Tim Burnaman): I give thanks, even when I do not know what the future will be like:, even when I don’t understand why things can seem so difficult, even when I have to go in a new direction. The more I give thanks, even when it’s hard to be grateful, the more blessings I see: “Here and now, I am free. I go inside…

Leddy Hammock (lyrics by Jana Stanfield): “Increase my faith, in the things I cannot see ? the things I cannot prove, yet I choose to believe.” “When I’m losing my way, it’s these words I pray: Oh, increase my faith, increase my faith.” “Open my mind, to the things I need to know, thoughts I need to hold, and the ones I can let…

Leddy Hammock (“Affirmations” in Lessons in Truth by H. Emilie Cady, 1895: “God is life, love, intelligence, substance, omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence.” “I am a child or manifestation of God, and every moment His life, love, wisdom, power, flow into and through me.  I am one with God, and am governed by His laws.” “I…

Leddy Hammock It would be scary if Truth were complicated and confusing. God, You remind me that Truth is simple and brings peace. It would be scary if we could control other people’s minds or they could control ours. God, You remind me that Truth never binds and always frees. It would be scary if we never faced challenges that teach us and make us stronger. God,…
