Please Allow Our Meeting To Be Centered On Heaven

Beloved Father!
The flow of past history
was sorrowful at times
and happy at times.

Each time we think
that heaven's sorrow
is dwelling in the center of a mind
that others don't know,
we realize how continuously inadequate
we have been as we relate to you.

Father!
This relationship of your having met us
has not been formed through our efforts;

it is due to the merit
of millions of generations of ancestors
which laid a bridge
and broadened and broadened its foundation.

Please allow us to be able
to feel grateful
for all the grace you have given
to let us have a day
when we could meet you like this today.

In a place where people gather together
and part again,
people are subjected to criticism,
and we can see that divisions occur;
but we must understand
that in a place where people meet
centered on heaven,
only awe, gratitude and tears remain.

Please let your children
who are gathered here
clearly realize that it will not do
unless they feel more compassion for God
deep in the center of their minds,
and they love God who is our father.

Please allow us
to become sons and to become daughters
who offer our minds and bodies
in order to love you as though we were crazy
and who are able to be grateful
even if we sacrifice everything,
and about whom you can feel joy
when you look at us.

As you searched for him,
how much did you long for
that one and only son
to whom you could give all your love
and about whom you could be proud
before all people?

Now our impatient selves
are advancing step by step
towards your internal character;

therefore, it will not do
unless we become those
who are waiting for the time
when you call us to hurry
and come to you.

Please absolutely don't let us ever
become sons and daughters
who avoid suffering
and worry that suffering may come.

We know well that
if there was a history of suffering,
there was without fail a mistake
between the people there.

Please allow us to realize clearly
that when you were doing well
behind the scenes
but humankind made a mistake,
heaven was sorrowful every time,
and stood in a position
where it could not help but be in anguish.

Humankind must never overturn the blessings
of the whole which heaven seeks to give,
due to making a mistake
or having cooperated together
and determined together.

Knowing this kind of truth,
we earnestly hope that you will allow us
to become sons and daughters
who are able to determine ourselves.
We have humbly prayed all these things
in the name of our True Parents. Amen.
