===Opening===
 
Ham: Greetings, children, I am Ham and I am happy you have each chosen to come this evening. For each of you, there are ups and downs, however, all of you are steadily progressing in the kingdom. You are all finding progress and finding a way forward where previously you have been stuck or stymied on your path.

===Lesson===
 
All of your being must traverse the path at once. It is not possible to get too far ahead of yourselves for always must the weakest part of you catch up to the strongest. There is no way to circumvent this law of the universe for just when you feel yourself really making progress will you be tripped up and embarrassed, perhaps, by a behavior or reaction you thought you had outgrown. It is important to remember that you are only as strong as that most vulnerable place.

Let us now, beginning with Rebecca, each of you can state what you feel your greatest weakness is. We will discuss it briefly and then move on.

===Dialogue===
 
Q: Mine is the inability to accept personal criticism, even if it is constructive. If people mean well and give me criticism, I can barely stand it. I know it is wrong, but I don’t know how to fix it.

Ham: Certainly, welcome the tests of faith my son. Do not be lazy about exercising your faith. Demonstrate to the Master the depth and breadth of your faith. There is no turning back from the faith journey you have embarked upon. Therefore, take each struggle as a promise of victory. But, do not be overly concerned with each temporary outcome. Look instead to the overall direction. Plot your course and then with prayer and steadfast faith move forward.

Are there any further questions at this time? Very well then, until next week my love and prayers are with you each. Go in peace, farewell.
