The multitudes who should have praised your glory of the ages should have lived together with you, together with your glory, embraced by you. But when we think that mistake one day by our human ancestors created a history of sorrow like this and that they have gone over rugged, desolate paths shedding sweat, blood, and tears, we earnestly hope that you will bear with our not being able to have anything to offer to comfort you in your sorrow and great grief.
Please have compassion on us. We cannot help but feel sorrow at having been born the descendants of the fall. Please allow us to become children who know how to be grateful in the presence of your heart which has searched for us through our destined relationship which could not be thrown aside.
We thank you for having come to the Korean people among the many different peoples, and we thank you for having called our worthless selves first from among the many individuals.
We know that this blessing is not for ourselves, and we are sincerely grateful for your having established us in a position where we have the responsibility of being an organization of blessings, sharing those blessings with many people of our nation and many people of humankind, and in a position where we can feel that kind of heavenly relationship.
We thank you that we are those who have been called to this position as fruits of the relationship you formed without our knowing it. Please allow us to understand the fact that the responsibility we shoulder does not remain with one individual.
Please let us take seriously that this mission which must go beyond our people and affect humankind and the world has been placed on the two shoulders of every one of us. And please allow us to become sons and daughters who receive your love and who know how to determine to fulfill this responsibility taking a step towards you.
We have humbly prayed all these things in the name of the True Parents. Amen.
Dr. Sun Myung Moon
