===Opening===
 
Ham: Greetings, my friends, I am Ham and I am happy that we have this discussion time together each week. You are each firmly settled upon the spiritual path. You have each had testing and trials that have challenged your steadfastness. You have had temptation to challenge your determination and you have experienced disappointment to challenge your dedication to the Father’s will. This life is designed in order that your faith will be strengthened through the experience of living through so much uncertainty.

===Lesson===
 
This life is not structured that you should simply leap from triumph to triumph without challenge, without questioning. No, this existence, this mortal world, was meant to be a test of faith from beginning to end and when you emerge on the mansion worlds, your faith will be tested, tempered, and true. You will be entrusted with some of the most sensitive assignments the universe has to offer. You will be chosen for assignments which require steadfast courage and unwavering commitment.

Think on this through the coming week. Redeem your own fears, your own weaknesses through affirming your love of the Master and the Father. Allow this love to break the chains of fear which still may bind you in some way. We will discuss this again in the future. But for now, let us proceed with the questions.

Q: Could I have a message please Ham?
 
Q: Could I have a message please Ham?

Ham: Yes, my son, of course. My son, it is true that increasing happiness is coming into your life as you ever more closely cleave to the Master’s spirit. Over most of your life, and from a young age, you were convinced that somehow you were unworthy of happiness and complete contentment. But, in recent times you have come through some difficulties and only by cleaving closely to the Master did you find your way. This is as it should be. Allow yourself to be happy in the now and allow this increasing happiness to invade every aspect of your life. No longer do you strive in isolated loneliness. No, rather now are you joined with the Master and all his angels and all his helpers. Increasingly, you are allowing them to take over the burdens of the moment and instead you are brining in the master’s spirit rather than pushing it away. This is a big step forward for from a young age you were prone to suffering in silence and you have been reluctant to relinquish this deep inner burden until now. There are indeed few men as certain and as comfortable with their faith as you are. Continue to grow in this comfort and continue to grow in happiness. Your way is assured, simply believe, trust and obey to the best of your ability. All else is taken care of. Rejoice then. Embrace happiness and feel yourself to be truly deserving of your place at the table.
