Ham: Greetings my children, I am Ham and I am happy to be among you this evening. At this time, we shall discuss once again the act of forgiving. Forgiveness is not something which is passive. It is not a concept which the understanding brings peace. Rather, it is an action, a conscious movement toward the Father. Often times, unconsciously, human beings turn away from the Father through the inability to forgive.

Forgiveness is not something which is passive. It is not a concept which the understanding brings peace. Rather, it is an action, a conscious movement toward the Father. Often times, unconsciously, human beings turn away from the Father through the inability to forgive.

Forgiveness is not an action of accepting injustice. Forgiveness is rather the act of putting aside the sin or injustice and loving the sinner or perpetrator in spite of these actions. The harboring of vengeance is destructive whether this occurs in an individual or a society. The seeking of retribution is never satisfied. It is an slakeable thirst leading only to a kind of madness.

Let peace be upon you as you discover the ever greater gifts the Father bestows upon you daily. Are there any questions at this time?

Q: Ham may I have a personal message please?

Q: Ham may I have a personal message please?

Ham: Yes, of course. My son, you do very well. You also are a person who take comfort in controlling your environment and there are times when this is appropriate and times when it is best to let go and to trust. And know there are no set rules, these things are always overlapping. It is best to find comfort in the releasing of control and in this your spiritual power will be increased. Be at ease with surrender. Most of life is out of our hands. We just don't like to acknowledge it.

Very well my children, is there anything further? Very well, as always, my prayers and my love go with each one of you. Be at peace as you fight the little battles of life and the great battles of self. Have comfort in the Master's presence and be mindful of him.
