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 Inspired by lyrics to “Search the Sky,” by Sloan Wainwright: “Search the sky for that star, star of light, star of love ? bright enough to guide believers from afar, seeking their rumored newborn King. And when we wish upon it, we wish for our only gift, peace around our troubled world, peace within ourselves. Search the face of the child,…

Leddy Hammock Nothing is impossible. It is never too late. Nothing is too much for God, no challenge too great. Hold onto your faith. The Truth will be revealed. Nothing is incurable. All things can be healed.

Leddy Hammock Based on lyrics by Eddie Watkins, Jr., to "All Is Well" Today I declare freedom from yesterday, mistakes of the past. Today all things are made brand new. And it feels so good to know that all is well and unfolding as it should. I can change my reality by changing my mind. Perfect peace, joy and happiness is yours and it's mine. I am loved and…

Leddy Hammock Based on lyrics to “Keep the Table Set” by David Roth and Tom Ryan: 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 shine all my dishes with my dreams and my wishes. I keep the table set. I believe…

Chelley Seibert I am brave enough to claim for my just reward. I am brave enough to face a tall challenge. I am brave enough to let go of the past and follow my calling. I am brave enough to follow my inner guidance and do one thing that scares me, every day.

Judy Tafelski As the seasons change, I choose to “fall back” on the Truth of Spirit and let life be easy now (inspired by lyrics by Karen Drucker): “Let it be easy. Now that I see the light, I won’t work on, day and night. I vow to take good care of me. Let it be easy. I don’t need to run a race. I’m choosing ease and grace, enjoying…

Leddy Hammock Bitterness gets me nowhere. I wander until I remember that God hears my prayers and guides me home. I am not bitter or uncertain now. I am a royal child of the Most High destined for unlimited possibilities. Even when it seems laughable to believe things will work out for me, I have faith that God’s plans for me are good. There is joy in my heart! No…

Leddy Hammock Inspired by words of Nimo Patel in “Being Kind” ? I just sit and pray in silence and God shows me the signs. I open my eyes and realize we are fine, one small act at a time. Small acts we do together, even though maybe alone, change the world for the better, so we can call it home. And this is life: as we know, when our hearts are aligned, the…

Leddy Hammock “On the day that we met . . . I noticed a crown on the top of your head . . . .I always knew just what your crown meant. It meant that you were MAGNIFICENT.” “That means you are grand from your toes to your chin. Take a deep breath, and let that sink in . . . . and it means, like a star, YOU WERE BORN TO SHINE . . . .” “Whatever…
