It is so good to see you again.
What was the pain of God’s heart? The pain came from the Fall. True Parents’ whole life has been spent to turn this around. True Parents reveal that life began from four great rivers.
Where is civilization heading? It is coming to the Pacific Rim. Which country is in the most pivotal role? America. But how is America doing as a nation at this time? When we trace the history of the Unification movement, it goes back a little over 50 years. Over 34 years has been invested in America.
Even in an ordinary family, when someone is over the age of 30, then he or she contributes to the family and the society. America as an Elder Son should really fulfill that role and be giving to the world. When you look at the history of God’s providence, America is in a central role and was blessed by God. That is why True Parents came here and have been sacrificing for America.
In history it looks like the men were always at the center; however, women played key roles in the entire providence. Who does the messiah come to meet? The bride. The messiah comes to meet the bride and America is in the bride’s position.
Now that True Parents have come, what age have we entered? The Age After the Coming of Heaven. This is the era of Cheon Il Guk. This is a time of total transformation, of turning upside down. Though this age has dawned, it still remains your portion of responsibility to fulfill it.
When you rise up to fulfill your responsibility in this age, then your ancestors are activated to pour down from heaven with enormous power. If you don’t fulfill your responsibility, then your ancestors are blocked from working. They are desperate to move through you.
Even in the secular world, even ordinary moms are always concerned about their children. As I have emphasized, this is the era of women – so mothers must rise up to be deeply moved by True Parents to bring the blessing to everyone. Until now, all humanity had no choice but to continue on through the fallen lineage. Now that this age is over, we can be engrafted into the Tree of Life. No longer is the lineage of heaven blocked.
There are many external problems. Many people are concerned that an enormous tragedy will occur at this time on earth. What should we do? Read the Peace Messages every day and make them part of your life. Of course our physical bodies have limitations. While you still need to rest and be nourished physically, there is no time to relax or have any joy. This is the moment for all of history in which True Parents must get the final victory. (True Mother began to cry). Do you understand the urgency of this spirit? Do you understand how urgent Heavenly Father is at this time? Therefore during this incredible age, at this time of blessing, the lineage of Satan still must be dissolved.
I am directing you as women and mothers to stand on the front line and resolve all the problems of the world. I am especially pleading to you - these are the precious words that True Parents have given. You must substantiate this in your life. It is your responsibility to rally your community around you and guide people on the heavenly path. I feel that especially now in this era of women, the Women’s Federation must rise up and stand in the Elder Son Nation. I am asking the women to stand up at this time and raise up this nation.
I want you to become qualified blessed families, to the nation and to the world. Can you promise?
