Expect the Best 11/06/2024

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, paving the way to good outcomes. I reflect on the good I expect, and as I conceive it, I receive it – or something even better! /episode/index/show/russhammock/id/33819434

Angels Say Fear Not 10/30/2024

Angels Say Fear Not Leddy Hammock Highlights from Psalm 91 I shall not fear. There is no evil, for God is the only Presence and the only Power. I shall not fear, for there is no absence of life, substance, or intelligence, anywhere. I shall not fear. Pain, sickness, poverty, old age, and death cannot master me, for they are not real. I dwell on thoughts of Truth—“angel thoughts.” There is nothing in all the universe for me to fear, for we belong to God, children, and the One who is within us is greater than anything in the world. /episode/index/show/russhammock/id/33696112

Share the Dream of Peace 09/16/2024

Share the Dream of Peace Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics, “Share the Dream of Peace” by Sue Riley, David Roth, & Jana Stanfield: “My skin may be a diff’rent shade, my language not the same. I pray in different places, I call God by different names. My clothing may not be like yours, might stand out in a crowd. But in universal Spirit, there are diff’rences allowed. We have the precious present and our presence holds the key to a world that is more loving, as we share the dream of peace. My arms embrace my children. I fall in love, I cry. I marvel at the sunset as another day goes by. But halfway ‘round the world, I know, your rain brings rainbows, too. Though we might seem so different, I am just the same as you. Imagining the future, remembering the past. Together we can co-create a vision that will last. /episode/index/show/russhammock/id/33079977

I wish you could see, the you that I see, there at the edge of possibility. I pray that you will find, all that you need. I wish you peace, that comes from within, a gentle release, of all that might have been, like the stillness that waits, between waking and sleep, I wish you peace.

True Calling 07/06/2024

True Calling Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics to “Your True Calling” by Jana Stanfield: When you hear a voice, no one else can hear, yet it’s clear and loud, ringing in your ear.

You ask yourself, “Is this a voice I can trust?” You think you can’t, but you know that you must. You’re afraid you’ll fall, if you let go. But, there’s only one way you’ll ever know. Those wings you keep folded are meant to be used when your true calling is calling you. You ask yourself, Am I asking too much? You think you can’t, but you know that you must.

Closer than You Think Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics to “Closer than You Think” – Sue Riley, Glen Roethel & Melinda Wood Allen: “When all your dreams are hooked on a shooting star And the star falls down, remember how great you are.

The road is long, and you feel weary. Take one more step, you are nearly home. Shadows of time, love that has passed you by And your hope runs out. Give it just one more try.

In the fullness of time, we have never wanted for any good thing. Even when we could not see the path before us, the way has been revealed. We have not traveled alone. The joy is in the journey. /episode/index/show/russhammock/id/31095503

God's Green Earth 04/23/2024

God's Green Earth Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics to “Pay Attention” Joyce Johnson Rouse (Earth Mama), based on wisdom attributed to Chief Seattle): Pay attention to the trees, pay attention to the river. Pay attention to the bees. Pay attention to the weather. Pay attention to the waters, to the dreams, to the forests, to the streams. Pay attention to the glaciers, to the breeze, to the frost line and the coastline and the coral beneath the seas. Pay attention to the wisdom, to the brothers and sisters living close to the Earth. We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors. We are just borrowing it from our children. This we know: The Earth does not belong to us. We belong ….to the Earth. /episode/index/show/russhammock/id/30954813

Feel it breaking down the walls, building everybody up. It’s taking over now; there’s no way it can stop. Spirit move everything. Spirit move in the space between.

God Knows 02/29/2024

God Knows Leddy Hammock Lyrics to “I Don’t Need To Know (for God knows)” by Daniel Nahmod I don’t need a master plan. I can live here in the moment, for my life is in good hands. I don’t need to know what the future holds, for God knows. It comes so clear to me, that the minute I surrender, I’m as safe as I could be. I can just let go, for God knows. /episode/index/show/russhammock/id/30179148

Holy Now 02/19/2024

Holy Now Leddy Hammock “When I was a [child] … we would go to church and pay attention … and everyone would kneel and bow. Today the only difference is, everything is holy now.” “When I was in Sunday school, we would learn about the time Moses split the sea in two, Jesus made the water wine. And I remember feeling sad that miracles don’t happen still. But now I can’t keep track, ‘cause everything’s a miracle.” “It used to be a world half there, heaven’s second rate hand-me-down. Now I walk it with a reverent air, ‘cause everything is holy now.” This morning, outside I stood and saw a little red-winged bird, Shining like a burning bush, singing like a scripture verse. It made me want to bow my head. I remember when church let out. How things have changed since then. Everything is holy now. /episode/index/show/russhammock/id/30023828
