===Lesson===
 
You are all becoming a dynamic focus of love as you interact in the world . Your ability to influence others is directly proportional to your true spiritual development. The only way you can gauge your own progress is by looking into your heart an d perceiving how much love you have for your fellows. Ask yourselves, every week , if you are growing in your ability to truly love your friends. Ask yourselves, are you growing in your ability to be non-judgmental toward your neighbor.

I want you all to think right how about taking this gratification and this resentment as if it were a physical thing you could hold in your hand. Be very specific, think of holding this in your hand. Now, in your mind's eye, think about sacrificing this resentment and gratification, throw it into a fire and let it burn. This is your sacrifice. This is something you are giving up for the Father. And as yo u do this, as you let go of this resentment and the gratification that has kept you holding it, feel your heart open, feel that place that was taken up by this resentment now being flooded with love. Feel your heart's expanding, and in your mind, go to that per son , put your arms around them, ask for forgiveness, and feel a new love within you pouring out to that person. Feel compassion and understanding. Allow yourself to understand that person, allow yourself to see them as God sees them, hurt, frightened, lonely. Let this love come over you, don't withdraw back into the old way, keep your heart open, keep the love flowing. Feel yourself be connected with the Father in such a strong and protected way that nothing that person could do to you in the future or h as done in the past can truly harm you. You are above it. The harm that person does or has done passes completely through you and does not harm you. Keep letting go, keep letting go, resentment, anger, guilt, are all falling away, falling away. Is there anyone having trouble visualizing this or experiencing this?

===Dialogue===
 
Q: Actually Ham I am in that I don't have any single individual to focus on.. The things I resent and get angry about are the actions of overall mankind an d what it has led society to being and the mess that it is in. Instead of changing for the better I see it being perpetuated. It effects me, but I cannot single out any one individual.

Q: I was watching PBS last night and they had the turn of the Century Mexican healer Theresa. From what she said, she started with the church and started healing people. She did not give credence to the church so they excommunicated her. It se ems like people like her come to this planet to teach us that the church is man's truth as distinct from God's truth. I though it was interesting how what she was saying back then paralleled the teaching mission.

Ham: Yes, son, the Father has never stopped sending messengers with his message into the world/ You will find it every where. Until next week, my prayers are with you. I love you all.
