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 am Spirit, perfect, holy, harmonious.  Nothing can hurt me or make me sick or afraid, for Spirit is God, and cannot be hurt or made sicko r afraid.  I manifest my real self through this body now.” “God works in me to will and to do whatsoever He wishes me to do, and He cannot fail.” As I believe, I will receive!

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, You remind me that, truly, something higher and better always results. It would be scary if all there was to me was my outer self. God, You remind me that my God-Self is the Truth about me and I am always loved.

Leddy Hammock There is no life, substance, or intelligence in evil. So, in Truth, 1. “There is no evil.” 2. “There is no absence of life, substance, or intelligence anywhere.” 3. “Pain, sickness, poverty, old age, and death cannot master me, for they are not real.” 4. “There is nothing in all the universe for me to fear, for greater is He that is within me than he that is in the world.” God, I am Your child – a child of Light. I now delete all that is false – first from my thinking and then from my life. I bless the part of me that is You!

Leddy Hammock I am not thinking burdens and blame. I am thinking freedom and forgiveness. I am not just reading scriptures. I am thinking Christlike thoughts! Whatever I am thinking about, I am drawing into my life. I am holding onto the Good, for I am the thinker that thinks the thought that changes things that shape my life. Now, in this election year, I have the power to change my life!

Leddy Hammock (from lyrics by Jan Garrett to “This Is what I Know”) “This is what I know, that we are all connected, the universe reflected in each shining part. And everywhere I go, I recognize the faces – All of my relations in this one Heart. Nearer than my breathing, closer than hands and feet.  And so I receive all I can be. And now I set it free, and so it is and so be it . . . . And now we begin, amen, amen.”

Leddy Hammock I am finding the faith to face changes bravely, for I know that God’s will for me is good and only good. I am learning to meet every challenge as a chance to make good choices and grow stronger in faith. I am watching closely and listening carefully for the beautiful lessons that come to me through every experience. I know that God is always with me, even when my life is changing forever.  No matter what, I am learning to say, ‘Thank You, God!” Mary Elliott Special Guest Star this Sunday!

Judy Tafelski Negative expectations do not help us, 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 reflect on the good I expect, and as I conceive it, I receive it – or something even better!

Sue Riley My good dreams are like seeds I plant and patiently wait for them to grow. It is never too late, for dreams have no expiration date. I accept the good God has prepared for me. My dreams come true, blessing all the world. Anything good can happen, as long as I think it can. Unexpected gifts await our outstretched hands.  Wake up, Sleeping Beauty!

Melinda Wood Allen Melinda’s lesson will be a “Sermon in Song” There is no lack in Spirit.  I praise and bless and use the good that I have. I open up a space by making room for an increase of blessings in my life. My blessings keep arriving as I keep opening up a space for them. When I act on my faith, I get what I need and so much more!        

Jennifer Ferren Jennifer’s lesson will be a “Sermon in Song” Through the power of Spirit in me now . . . . I am open and receptive. I accept God’s great plans for me. I am grateful and strong. I am teachable and ready to serve.

Leddy Hammock This is my prayer: an understanding heart, a heart so full of love that I see good everywhere I look, loving God with all my heart and loving others as myself, a clear mind, an open heart, living in peace with all.

Leddy Hammock Inspired by lyrics by Richard Mekdeci and Mario Friedel: When I still myself . . . . . . my path is true, for God’s guiding light shines inside of me. . . . I find my balance as I hear God’s voice calling from deep inside. . . . the strength I seek is just a breath away. . . . in the Silence, I find my way, as I am calm and still.

Leddy Hammock I begin my prayer with a cry for help, feeling alone and vulnerable, weak and afraid, guilty and worried, unsure that You hear me or care. Then, open to Your guidance, I thank You for Your protecting love, knowing You always hear and answer me, for You are fair and forgiving, my saving grace. Your love lifts my heart and I thank You. My prayer is answered and I am at peace.

Leddy Hammock (inspired by lyrics to “In this Moment” by Melinda Wood Allen): “In this moment, I release. I let go. I find peace. In this moment, I live and let live. And I’m given the grace to forgive . . . . In this moment, no cause to defend, no one against me, nothing to mend. In this moment, I need nothing at all, so I listen and answer the call . . . . In this moment, I release.  I let go. I find peace.”        

Leddy Hammock If I’m tempted to forget Your will, remind me that You’re with me still and that You’d never lead me to stray. I’m fearless in Your confidence. I trust in Your deliverance. I know You would not leave me in dismay. My God, my Good, You’re the only One. So, not my will, but Thine be done. Your Light is always shining on my way. You deliver us from negativity. You are the Truth that sets us free. You bless the paths we walk in, day by day.

Leddy Hammock Heavenly Father, Your name is holy and Your name is my name, too. Every time I say, “I Am,” I pray in God’s name. Heaven is the realm of divine ideas – instant, constant, and everywhere present. God is Love, God is Spirit. Spirit pours out divine ideas to all who are open to them. The more I look for the good, the more I see God, my Father. Everything is sacred.

Leddy Hammock (Inspired by lyrics by John Stringer) We are all God’s children, and God, our Father, is our instant, constant, everywhere present Source of all good. I say “Yes” to the Father. God, our Father, is Love. Father, I say “Yes” to Your love. Father, I know You know the plans to prosper me, give me hope and a future and I say “Yes.” I surrender. I say, “Yes.” Father, I say “Yes” to Your love.
