===Opening===
 
Ham: Greetings, children, I am Ham and I am happy to be welcomed once more this evening. Tonight, let us discuss what real power consists of. For what is spiritual power as it manifests in your world? Spiritual power rests and consists in love alone. The Master was so powerful because he was so loving. Your world has not seen such a loving human being since his passing. Human beings are afraid of that kind of love, a love that admits no barriers, a love that overwhelms any who draw near to his person, a love that can change a person's life who simply touched the hem of his garment.

===Lesson===
 
His power was real. Even after the destruction of his earthly body, he remained and then his spirit, his love, was poured out on all flesh changing all the world and everyone in it. His power was not of an earthly nature. Of earthly power, he dabbled little. His power was real and in a sense he gave it even more reality by renouncing earthly power, by renouncing the petty human ego drive to be somebody. In the end, he gave up all power and then was given great power in return.

Yes, of course. Participating in life is necessary in order to understand the differences we speak of. Life is a great teacher. There is no substitute for it. Life is a proving ground, a nursery. It is a place where ultimately great decisions are made. There would be no value in a world where there was no struggle. Always, in this universe, there is an ongoing struggle of creation. The Father is his wisdom places great value on individual human will. That will is realized or made real as it is brought into conflict with those things that are unreal. Many human beings live their entire lives in a mistaken reality. In other words, they mistake the unreal for that which is real. All human beings make these errors and it is only through living a natural life that one can realize the difference, that one can sort the valuable from that which is not valuable. The young do that which they see their elders do. They value that which they see their elders value and so are lead astray en mass every generation. But, your world is not barren of the older and wiser souls which contribute much more than they seem to to this world through utilizing spiritual power. Is this helping?

Q: Ham, so you have any counsel for me tonight?

Ham: Of course. My son, you do very well. You are also growing in your self assurance and your sense of security is increasing. This is as it should be. Those who are secure in faith are unmoved by the normal ups and downs of living. You are no longer thrown off balance by sudden changes and unexpected alterations. More and more you have gained experience and so are not so easily knocked out of your secure place. This is very good to see. Continue in your spiritual questing for always there are times when the way seems murky or shrouded in fog but this is temporary and you know that it will soon be clear. You are doing very well. Be at peace my son.

===Closing===
 
Be at peace my children. Let not your hearts be troubled and do not allow them to be afraid. For all of you at every crossroads, the Master's voice will whisper "this is the way" and you will be able to tread this new and different way each time. So be completely at ease.
