Father! Has there been any time that we have offered our minds, will and strength to you as pure things?

1

Father! Has there been any time that we have offered our minds, will and strength to you as pure things? If there has not been that kind of time while we represent humankind, the people, the world, and the cosmos, please allow us to become sons and daughters who fully realize our own inadequacies before you, and who repent for this of our own accord.

Now we must offer you everything about our daily lives as pure things; we must offer you all the strength we have as a pure thing; we must offer you our bodies and minds as pure things, and we must offer you our characters as pure things.

Even though we know your situation of not being able to take things unless they are pure, we have offered to heaven things that are left over after we used them, and since we have lived our lives in just any old way, please bear with our inadequate selves.

Since now, by taking the example of Jesus who toiled to realize the Will of heaven, we will give everything to you as pure things in terms of our hearts, we earnestly hope and desire. Beloved Father, that you will bless us.

Oh, Father!! Please allow us to take the example of Jesus' mind and experience and feel keenly the heart of Jesus, who worshiped heaven and was not concerned about life or death.

Please let us become Israel centered on love by our taking the example of the Will and character of heaven which are centered on the new love, and please let us attend heaven and carry on heavenly lives centered on love.

We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will awaken us and not let us become people who do not know that we must become true brides of victory who can stand proudly before you by having subjugated Satan, and we must become saints who must build the ideal world which heaven can enjoy, and at the same time Jesus and the Holy Spirit can enjoy, and the myriads of saints can enjoy, and even all the things of creation on the earth can enjoy eternally.

Now we earnestly hope that you will guide us to be people who, even if we repent and shed tears, are more than able to shed them on the world level, and if we give our entire mind, to do it on the universal level, and if we give everything for the Will, to do it on the universal level, and if we give our entire character, to do it on the level of the cosmos.

Furthermore, please allow us to attain the glory of being able to gather individual things, and as things belonging to the whole to offer those things by our representing the tribe, the people, the nation, and humankind, through living lives which we offer to you as pure things.

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