For thousands of years you have required human spiritual leadership. You have been blessed by many human teachers who have given the world an immeasurable uplift. When Melchizedek come the first time, he came as a man. When your creator son came, again he came as a man. But now, you are moving beyond the adolescent phase where one needs human example and are transitioning into the phase of being able to understand higher knowledge and wisdom directly from spiritual sources.

There will still be human leaders, certainly, but you children are on the edge of being aware of a much greater reality. You are coming into contact with a new and greater world. Like the Viking explorers of old who braved the seas of faith and landed in a new world, so have you my friends braved the seas of doubt and the storms of unbelief to set foot in a new and greater world. Indeed, you are becoming as ambassadors from our world to yours. You are testifying with your lives as to its existence and you know of a certainty that mortal death is but a step from this world to the next.

Rejoice then and be exceedingly glad for the Master's arm is about your shoulder and his word of encouragement speaks to your ear. Follow me, says he. Follow me. Allow his hope to fill your hearts, allow his love to comfort your minds. Allow his footsteps to guide the way. Be unafraid to follow wheresoever he will lead you. Have complete faith and a steady heart. And now, I would like to receive questions at this time.

Q: First, do you think I could have a personal conference

Q: First, do you think I could have a personal conference

Ham: Yes, when you are motivated by service then all manner of human convention and narrow thinking become simply an interesting pathway. You serve in many ways. Each one of you is brought into contact with people who need you. They may not know they need you, they may be full of resentment or jealousy or anger toward you, but nonetheless they need you. Each one of you must conduct yourselves as an ambassador for a greater world. You must give those who stumble in darkness, glimpses of the light. This is your purpose. The son of man came not to be served but to serve. He came not as a conqueror, but as a humble servant willing to wash the feet of his children. When life is understood in this greater context as holding these deeper meanings, the most humble work is elevated for you serve God when you serve his children. Think of yourselves as not servants of God, but sons and daughters of God who have seen a greater light and whose duty now is to give that light where you can to his other children. Serving the Father elevates life. There is no job so small that it is not precious to the Father. The Master said he who would be greatest among you must become a servant to all. That means not just the people you want to serve, but the people you don't want to serve as well.
