We must understand that until now our father has not been ruled by anyone, but our father's mind has been sorry even as he gave. It was our father's mind to want to give pure, original love completely. But we must think about the fact that due to humankind's fall, in the heart of our father who carried out the providence step by step there are the tears of loneliness from that period of thousands of years. Father! We must know that your situation has been that you could not help but go through the stages of the rugged peaks of the age of formation, the age of growth and the age of perfection in the course of the providence of restoration.
Even while receiving your love, until today, humankind has not known how to be grateful to you, and has not known how to reciprocate. We have considered the inner heart of our father who has lead this sorrowful history bravely and with good courage, determined to give everything at some point, the more people are like that. Today please express your sorrowful heart. Your sons and daughters have gathered here feeling fear that we might not be able to become the sons and daughters who can receive everything from you and give everything to you representing the world, representing history, representing the cosmos at this time of your expressing completely the heart your wanted to give. Father, we have come to understand that when a person who is filled with a mind which wants to give the things of creation meets a person who wants to receive those things, if that person bows his head and feels ashamed even as he is giving, that person is your person.
Even having given everything, feeling restricted by not being able to give more, wanting to give more, even if there is the grief of burning up one's mind and body and disappearing, if there is a person who has a mind which denies even the fact that he has disappeared, that person belongs to God, and when we think that all heaven is connected to him, we earnestly hope that you will allow us to appear at this time as sons and daughters who can connect with you, Father, at this central point which we cannot avoid even if we wanted to. We have humbly prayed all these things in the name of the True Parents. Amen.
