Please Let Us Be Reborn Into A Life That Is One With The Will

Father! It will not do unless we determine the position in which we are placed, and can go straight in the direction of the goal which You have determined, and be one with the will, and become one with Your mind and establish ourselves as the true sons and daughters You long for; therefore, we have come to this place longing for those things.

When we think that this place is a place where not only humankind but also heaven is taking on an extraordinarily important mission, and where both are hoping to make a determination for a new historical origin, we realize that this place is a place heaven is watching carefully, and a place humankind is watching carefully, due to our going a path proper to human beings who attend heaven in between heaven's side and humankind's side. And we realize it is a place carrying the responsibility of having to go directly towards Your Will and not lean towards anything.

However, Father, we must have a definite view of the goal. Relating to that goal we must become people who clearly know the solemn fact that without an absolutely accurate sense of direction in our lives day by day, we will not be able to go the full course of a true life.

While watching many days pass, we must not let them pass just staying as we are. We must become a movement of holy people who become different and change, and who know how to long to be able to become unified with Your nature, and know how to stand in that position, and who are able to represent the substantial beings of Your ideal of creation. We already know that You seek to meet and find these kinds of people through Your Will. When we call You "Father." that father must not become an ambiguous father.

We must face You squarely, Father, and follow the direction that You go. Please allow us to become children who are able to feel that it is the duty of children to not want our path to be a smooth one, but rather to feel that it will not do unless we follow the path that heaven has gone because it is the path of our parent even if it is a path that adds suffering upon suffering.

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