[tmtranscripts] Live lives of fearless love

[David G. Schlundt, Ph.D.]

Ham: Greetings, children, I am Ham and I thank you each for coming this 
evening. My friends, you are all doing well. It is wonderful to see you 
growing and each one developing individual talents, the gifts God has 
given you. It is not enough to hide away your gift, to keep it safely 
hidden. No, each person must work on his own specific endowment. You 
must multiply the talents, so to speak and you must also allow these 
gifts to be part of the lives of others and to impact other people. In 
short, to help make your own way in the world, each of you here has 
gifts you have not discovered the extent of these gifts yet. But you are 
beginning to reveal them and to be responsible in your handling of your 
gifts.

Each of you is like a flower beginning to bloom. Your work in the world 
is like a blossoming and this blossoming also helps others to blossom 
within themselves. It is wonderful to see all of you blooming, growing, 
changing, and impacting the world. My joy at being part of your lives, 
my gratitude for being allowed to aid this blossoming, humbles my heart 
and I must give thanks to our Father for allowing such wonder on such a 
lowly planet.

The Father's perfection is boundless. The beauty and symmetry of his 
creation is likewise limitless. The smallest particle, the beauty of the 
material structure of life never ceases to draw awe and wonder from my 
soul. That beauty and harmony exists throughout the vast limits of 
material creation on all levels. The spheres of space align in the same 
harmony and beauty as the beauteous symmetry of a molecule. But, the 
most beautiful thing in existence is the human soul. Beautiful and 
perfect from God and yet individual and human at once. The real work of 
this life you are living is all concerned with the growth of your soul. 
Accomplishments and rewards are worth nothing unless they contribute to 
the growth of your souls.

My friends, each day truly do you stand on the brink of your destiny. 
For each day you add to the growth of your souls. Think on this and 
contemplate the great wonder of life. Feel your souls develop and feel 
your souls become beautiful. Feel your hearts blooming and opening and 
receiving the warm love of the Father as a flower receives the warmth of 
the sun. Do not be afraid to bloom in this world. Do not hide your light 
under a basket. Gradually, you are coming through a long journey which 
began with fear and distrust of the world and is now coming full circle 
to the day you were born when life was love and love was life. The 
discovery of love is also rediscovery of yourselves. As you discover God 
within you, so do you discover him all around you.

Live lives of fearless love. Find love in the world - in other people, 
in natures creation - and give your love to love so that all love is one 
and you are part of everything that is. Sometimes human beings are like 
frightened animals. You might put your hand out to them and they might 
snap or scratch back at you. But you do not blame them for their fears. 
You must simply look beyond them to see the frightened child within. You 
are all coming to understand that you need not be afraid of anyone and 
that you can be a representative of love to those who are frightened.

Have love in your hearts my children and be representatives of the 
Master and his love. When you are in doubt, try to see the world through 
the Master's eyes. When you are frightened, cling to him and allow his 
love to assuage your fears and comfort your souls. Do not make the 
mistake of trying to live according to his will without his involvement. 
Many people don't understand the difference. Make him personally part of 
your lives and at every step turn to him. Do not try to create something 
apart which you can then present to the Master. Create everything with 
him. Allow him his say at every small opportunity for his spirit grows 
stronger as you grow within that spirit and his spirit is personal, and 
his spirit deals with each person personally.

Love him as a father, brother, best friend. Bring him into your thoughts 
and into your lives in ever greater measure. In this way, your souls 
will become gradually a bit more perfect each day and your lives 
gradually a bit more harmonious with others each day. You will be as 
living representatives of his love and this is the most any human being 
can aspire to. Feel his blessing upon you, his loving arms around you, 
and be secure in knowing him as you know yourselves, as you know any 
person. And know of a certainty he will not fail you, he will not 
abandon you but will be with you through your lives and into the next 
world. For this is the Master's promise. All you must do is believe.

What are your questions?

Q: Do you have anything for Rebecca?

Ham: Certainly, daughter, you do well. Slowly but certainly you are 
moving forward with courage. Continue in your work my dear. Put one foot 
before the other and allow the Master to steady you, to comfort you, and 
to guide you in this effort. Yes, take no step back, push forward and 
continue in your work. Allow his love to illuminate your path for truly 
you are serving him. Take comfort in this thought and continue.

Q: Jarad?

Ham: Yes, my son, of course. You also must steady yourself with the 
Master's hand. Hold fast to his guidance and continue to bring him into 
all levels of your life. As this relationship develops, embrace him ever 
more. Feel his spirit as the way shower for he is truly the one helping 
to illumine your path. Continue to open your heart to him. Allow him to 
enter and to be with you through all things. Embrace his love and reveal 
his love for this my son is your destiny.

Q: Ham, do you have anything for Jim?

Ham: Certainly. My son, your faith is growing even in the face of this 
physical hardship. Understand that your spiritual growth, the well being 
of your soul, is of the utmost importance to all the beings surrounding 
you. The Master's light grows stronger within you day by day. Hold onto 
this and talk to him, ask of him, show him your faith by reaching out to 
him. In all things you are finding a way toward the spirit. Continue 
this, for you do very well.

Q: Ham, I would like to know if I have a message please?

Ham: Of course my son. You are doing very well and you are continuing to 
grow in the spirit. For many years you have needed desperately the 
warmth of the Masters love and the constancy of his support, his 
upholding spirit. The reality of this is now breaking upon your mind as 
you come to understand who your real Father and Mother are in the 
universe. Your real father is never disappointed or upbraiding. He does 
not act like a creditor or judge. No, your real father values you, your 
soul and your unique personality above all things. You are his son and 
he has claimed you. The rest of your life will be spent claiming your 
sonship and realizing. Be at peace my child, all is well.

Q: A message for me please Ham?

Ham: Yes, of course. My son, you do very well. You are indeed growing 
into your greater self and part of that process is the releasing of the 
lesser self. The butterfly must forsake the cocoon. My son, you life 
continues to unfold even as your soul unfolds its petals. Gradually you 
are completing a reorientation in the world and are moving from 
uncertainty, doubt, and fear increasingly toward certain faith, complete 
love, and total security. And though you see where you are going, the 
false security of the cocoon can beckon. But my son, that life is 
passing away and you are drying your wings in the warmth of the Father's 
love. Live fully, live completely with unbounded faith. It is time to 
look forward rather than backward and to be open to love, to expansion, 
and growth. Do not stumble or tire for at each step you will have what 
you need.

Q: For Catherine please?

Ham: Yes, my daughter, be at ease in your heart and do not fear the 
future. Cling closely to this man for he will provide all that you need 
if you will let him. Do not be distrustful of love and allow yourself to 
be happy. Step forward, my dear, and go gently along the path of truth. 
It is not a path to be walked alone. Trust love and you will find an 
increased trust of yourself.

Q: Do you have a personal message for Charlie B?

Ham: Certainly. My son, have faith. You too must continue to grow in 
self-discovery and in the wonder of that discovery. Peace and happiness 
are yours, but often you choose to reject these gifts of God out of 
certain preoccupations. But my son, the Master seeks entrance into every 
detail. He seeks admittance into every corner of your heart. Take your 
time and allow his love ever greater entrance.

Q: Do you have any feedback for me this week?

Ham: Yes of course. My son, your star continues to rise. You are finding 
happiness and increased satisfaction in your life as you move closer to 
the Master and his guidance. Feel his arm about your shoulder and his 
gentle whisper within your ear. Rest in the joy of his love and do not 
step back into doubtful unknowing but continue ever forward in certainty 
and faith as you have. Gradually you are leaving behind the old shell as 
well and are growing into expanded awareness and function in the world. 
This is exactly where you should be and I am very pleased with your 
progress personally as well. Ask of the Master and it shall be given.

Yes, remember this, ask and ye shall receive for now you know what to 
ask. Go in peace my son, all is well. And until next week, my love and 
prayers are with all. Farewell.
