Father! We know that a person who does not desire to bow humbly while attending you will not be able to form a relationship with you in the eternal kingdom.

Father! We know that a person who does not desire to bow humbly while attending you will not be able to form a relationship with you in the eternal kingdom.

Now as we open our hearts and go out seeking, we are seeking the day we have longed for when our bodies can follow the subjective commands of our minds and we feel your heart at the center of our minds.

Therefore, please allow us to become people who are able to bow our heads of our own accord, feeling that behind the scenes you have gone through a historical course of misfortune and toil for the sake of finding each one of us, and today please let us hear your voice flowing out of our minds and be able to find our bodies which had been lost.

And please allow us to become people who are able on our own to feel through our minds and bodies, minds that are in awe of you. We thought that you always came to us only as the father of glory, but you came to us as the lord of sorrow and as the lord of suffering, and you came to us as an expression of misfortune. Because we did not know that you were like this, we have wanted to give you responsibility for our sorrow, and have wanted to give you responsibility for our difficulties, and have wanted to give you responsibility for our misfortunes. Please bear with us.

You have walked this kind of course of history, and have come to us lamenting and keeping your sorrow under control. Please let us realize that we are a fallen tribe who cannot even call you "Father." Please do not allow there to be any sons or daughters who do not know your course of sorrow as we seek to relieve you of your toil of millions of years.

We have humbly prayed all these things in the name of the Lord. Amen.
