Note: These notes are taken from a Peace TV video clip. They cannot be published as definitive texts and should never be used in the future as an "official" publication of True Father's words. However, they do provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the message. -- Rev. Katsumi Kambashi
Mrs. McDevitt read Father's speech titled "복귀의 한 (Resentment of restoration)" from his speech book #42.
"Only when you voluntarily take the path that other people can't, though you don't like it yourself, God's Will will be realized after you and the angelic world will protect you. Without going through that process, there will never be liberation and victory for you. If you clearly understand it, you should carry through embracing such an idea until the end of your life.
This place could be the worst or the best place. When you come to like the worst place, it will become the best place for you. If a mediocre bad place becomes better, it only becomes a mediocre good place, but if you make the worst place becomes the best place, it means you pioneered the path that no other can't and that you came in the position of ownership. That is the only way where God would want you to lead the way with Him rather than just be amazed with and give applause to you. Even if you don't have food and can't do anything else, once you realize it, you should try it. Then until the results come, you could console Him as a friend, comrade, or in-law.
At the end of having gone through the east, west, north and south, all others will have been down but you will have gone up, and then you will be fine. When you meet them, they will say, 'Wow, we thought you were worse than us but now we realized you are beyond comparison with us.' That's the only way for us to take.
엄마 (Mother), why don't you sing '고향의 노래' (Hometown song)? When I miss my hometown, I will put myself in the song she sings. There was a story that a guy took over the wife of his friend, escaped with her, and lived far from their hometown, but he deadly missed his hometown. What should he do then? Kill her? He must return to their hometown with her and should be able to explain and show the results to his friend saying 'You will blame what two of us did but please see what we have now. What we did was not the way you thought but it was the way to become what we are now. I came back to show you this.' And show the results to his friend. Then people couldn't do anything.
So when you read the Bible, you should read it soulfully. You might think it would be better to read it quickly but you should be moved by even reading it slowly. Then you would realize like 'I haven't been able to do such thing. This figure has a better mindset than that of our pastor and elders of the church. When I pray to God, I feel what this person did was not wrong.' If you deal the issue such way, a better way will be widely open."
Then Mother sang '가고파' and '목련꽃 그늘 아래서', and Father sang '노고지리', followed by the songs of the participants of the meeting
