Father,
We are ashamed of our immature way of life, not knowing of Your existence. We should honor the opportunity to kneel down before You, calling you "Father", even more than our own lives.
How can we ever repay You for establishing this humble race, in such miserable darkness, in such a barren desert-like world, for allowing us to gather, drinking in Your words. We should be grateful beyond all imagination.
As we stand before Your Will, let us re-determine ourselves to become true sons and daughters. Let us become the ones who have no choice but to love God. Let us be the ones who cannot sleep until we see that world that You search for. We were born for the sake of God and our lives are for the sake of mankind. Please allow us to become the sons and daughters who live according to this holy providential content.
Where could these CARP students go in the future? Please let them be grateful in offering their lives for the sake of the boundless world of Heaven. Instead of searching for their own happiness, let them be the sons and daughters who can pioneer the foundation of happiness for all people, looking to Heaven for their own life-support. Let us also stand before this race and the people of the world in a subject position, and I pray that we can be sons and daughters who can receive the love of Heaven.
Please don't let us waste this time. We know that the year 1970 is calling us. We should hear the sad outcry of every race of this miserable mankind who is willing to welcome us with open arms. Armed with the banner of victory and liberation, we should go through the barrier of death, centering above on Heaven's desire, and below, on all the people. I pray deeply that we may utterly feel this as our mission.
We are grateful for Your allowing us -- who have such little value - to become a part of Yourself, and for giving us the name "object" who can represent Your love. I pray that we may become Your loving sons and daughters, praising our Parent and following that path solemnly, leaving behind us that tradition of the heavenly relationship.
Through this morning's talk, please let them be bonded into an unforgettable family. I pray that they may be perfected sons and daughters with whom You, Father, will be pleased -- those who will find the purpose of their lives to possess the original attitude, and those who will praise the heavenly relationship.
I know that in this year of 1970, we have to expand the Unification movement worldwide. For that purpose, I know that there must be many of your sons and daughters who will spread the world of blessing to all people, with the spirit of every race behind them. Therefore, I also feel the need for many who are very learned.
You have prepared many young people in this world. I pray that we can put our utmost sincerity and effort into fulfilling the goal before us, fearing that when we fail such a mission, these young people will face a period of disgrace.
I pray that all the blessings and the will of the providence will open to the hopeful frontier and their lives, stimulating them so that they can be sons and daughters who will march forward toward the point of victory of peace. I pray all these things in the holy name of True Parents.
Amen.
