Please Establish Us As Our Original Selves In The Original Garden
Beloved Father!
In the garden of our minds,
please allow your joy to be planted!
Please allow your life to be planted;
please allow your love to be planted;
and please allow your glory to be planted!
Please allow your joy, life, love and glory
to become the foundation of our eternal minds,
and please allow us
to trample down and stand victorious
over all the unhappiness of the earth.
Please allow us
to trample down and stand victorious
over this world of darkness,
and please allow us
to trample down and stand victorious
over this world
with its terrible divisions and strife.
Since we must become sons and daughters
who are able to trample down and stand victorious
over sighs, interference and weeping
and we must become people
who are able to spread joy to many people,
please guide us even though we are inadequate.
Father!
We know that today
we ourselves must stand before you as true children,
and we must not enjoy happiness from an evil position,
or enjoy happiness centered on ourselves.
Furthermore, we know that the life
Christ lived when he carne to the earth
was not a life centered on himself.
Therefore, Father, before ourselves being happy,
please let us first make our brethren happy;
and before enjoying something ourselves,
please let us be able to let our brethren enjoy it.
Please let us have minds
that are able to walk the cosmic course of life
and go beyond ourselves.
Please allow us to be able to love each other
and to relate as true brothers and sisters
through goodness alone
while taking the example of Christ's course of life.
Please allow us to be able
to have God's joy, life, love and glory
as our own,
and we earnestly hope and desire, beloved Father,
that you will establish us as one center
from which we cannot leave even if we wanted to,
centered on the destined relationship
of true brothers and sisters.
We know that if there is a person
who truly loves others,
the original garden will reveal eternal value
through that person.
Therefore, please, please lead us
to be able to sing songs of your glory
without being ashamed
by having become the sons and daughters of heaven
you have been hoping for
within the realm of your love.
Please allow us to be able to bow down respectfully
with gratitude before you and your glory,
and to reveal our individual values
as object partners of beauty to you.
And while earnestly hoping and desiring
that you will please allow us
to become eternal children of victory,
we have prayed in the name of the Lord. Amen.
