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…

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics to “Attitude of Gratitude” by Richard Mekdeci & Marshal Stern: “I’ve got an attitude of gratitude …. I thank the universe for each new day …. In any situation, time or place, my grateful heart creates a state of grace…. Now there’s not any place where I don’t see heaven’s blessings pouring down on me…. I’m finding pleasure in the…

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…

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…

Leddy Hammock The LORD, our God, is One and God is Love. With love in my heart, I give love away. It all comes back and makes a better day. My only “enemies” are anger and fear thoughts. Being mean won’t help. I lift up those negative “inner mes” through loving thoughts and actions. Now is the time to do the right thing: to start letting go…

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,…

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…

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…
