Please Allow Us to Push Through Adversity and Be Victorious

Father! We have gone through the tedious, historical age of indemnity, and the new historical age is before our eyes. We see that all our enemies who were so powerful, who had such dignity, and who took the offensive against us, are already approaching the setting of their sun.

We now realize that heaven's having left them in their positions was in order to save everything at once, in order to expand the domain of the providence, and in order to establish the standard of the division of the age which would be able to liquidate everything. Therefore, we will have to open a way for even them to live, too.

In the same way that Jesus asked for blessings on the Roman soldiers who nailed him to the cross while he was dying on the cross, we pledge anew to become those who will take over the mission of the savior who saves people realistically in real situations. We thank you sincerely for the time of determining this beginning.

We know that the church is not the problem; the nation is not the problem; the world is not the problem. My self is the problem. And without liquidating my sins myself and establishing the site of the promised land which can lead to the Kingdom of Heaven, we should have realized that the Kingdom of Heaven and I will have no relation to each other; and however good the concept of our Unification Church may be, that concept and I will not be able to have a relationship.

Therefore, we earnestly hope that you will please let us become your children who can think only of heaven and who, by thinking critically of our selves, will go beyond the level of Adam and Eve who fell in Eden long ago and enter a bright new age.

We think that due to starting correctly, the stages will be correct and the final destination will be correct. We know that your Will, through which you will guide us in the future, has gone through so many historical ages with you watching, and we know how strong and of good courage we must be, for you have placed us on the field of the final fierce battle.

Although David who appeared before Goliath had the shabby appearance of a shepherd, he had a thorough knowledge of heaven and a thorough knowledge of earth, and while he went forth, he believed in heaven's protection. We know it was this that overcame Goliath.

Today the Unification Church is very small, but whether we look at the basis of our thoughts or whatever, we know that we must be a group that struggles to represent that aspect of David in front of Goliath.

We must be strong and of good courage. We are stressing that we must become the young men and women of the Unification Church who are burning with a conviction that will last from the beginning to the end, and that can go straight forward and cut its way through anything in the world.

When we realize that it is we who are the elements linking all those parties, we earnestly ask that you will allow us to become the brave people of heaven who will rush towards the frontline, determining to adapt ourselves to the order, keeping step, and hearing the same breath and the same pulse of the same heartbeat.

We pray all these things in the name of the True Parents. Amen.
