===Opening===
Ham: Greetings, children, I am Ham and I am happy to greet you all again after our break.
===Lesson===
You are each learning many things, lessons, that will give you additional guidance in the future. You are all looking forward into the future with open hearts and willing minds. With coming spring, you are feeling anticipation and a subtle excitement about what adventures are coming. You should all be at ease and more calm than you are. All of you are having some minor stresses and fears.
Nothing should disturb your balance. Learning how to balance well involve s keeping balance during times of disturbance. Balance and mental equanimity is crucial to success in any endeavor. If you can keep a good balance in the small whirlwinds, your chances of keeping a good balance when a larger wind comes is greatly enhanced. Everyone must deal with difficult situations, difficult people and part o f balance is the learning of not allowing someone else to push you off balance. Sometimes, this involves the step of removing yourself from another's influence and other times it involves learning to weather the wind storm that another sends in your direction.
When someone's behavior is objectionable to you, you must always pray for that person. In other words, you must pray for your enemies and in this prayerful attitude find understanding and compassion. This prayerful attitude may not alter their objectionable behavior toward you, but it will help you be flexible enough to weather the storm that is sent your way. You must all also realize that there are some people that you personally cannot help. You all take your relationship with Jesus, our Father/brother Michael, very seriously and so you seek to help everyone who comes into sphere of influence. Jesus recognized that there were very many people that he could not personally help and people that he could not help spiritually even if he healed the body.

People will come to you with various motives who don't always wish for spiritual help. Like the woman who followed the Master seeking physical healing but who would not listen to his sermons. People come to others with various expectations, wants, and needs. You must all understand that you cannot be all things to all people and you must understand that the Master does not require you to be. Part of recognizing the Father's will is recognizing your own limitations.

Be at ease with each other. Have freedom and openness. Wear the Master's mantle lightly, do not cause your tasks to be more of a burden than they should be. Are there any questions at this time?

Son, you are learning some hard lessons but also are inspiring in your ba lance and reliance on the Father. Continue your mediation practice every day. Every thing is now working itself out, so have no fear, you are doing well. The one thing I would say son is that you must be more persistent in your pursuit of goals. Do not be s o quick to give up.
