Please awaken humanity from its slumber

Father! We know that the only thing that remains for us to accomplish is to fulfill the Will of heavenly principles. And we know that the center of that Will is You, Father, and the True Parents.

Furthermore, we know that the people living on the earth must become the true sons and daughters of the True Parents. And not only that, we also know that what you want of us is that we become one as brothers and sisters, and to have all people become your true sons and daughters.

Father! We also know that the sin of blocking the way of and violating the people who want to stand in the position of the sons and daughters, you are hoping for, is a greater sin than any on this earth.

Violating the true sincerity of another person is also a sin we cannot accept, but since we know that causing true sibling love to be lost is an even greater sin before the heavenly law, we earnestly hope and desire that You will guide us and not let us forget this.

Father! We sons and daughters who are gathered here have been in a deep sleep, and the heavenly law is trying to wake us up. If someone says he cannot get up because of another brother, how can he say that the Shepherd is leading him? Please do not let us remain in such a position.

Let us take responsibility for our brothers as well, and please allow us to become sons and daughters who can prepare hidden altars as representatives of the heavenly principles.

Please establish the ideal of the eternal son and daughter that You desire, and please let us realize that Your gaze is always upon us. Please allow us to feel the touch of Your love, and please allow us to hear Your voice appealing to us.

We also earnestly hope and desire, Father, that You will allow us to experience Your heart that is admonishing us even as it aches for us to resemble Your feelings, and to follow the example of Your inner nature, and to become the head disciples of Jesus Christ, who can be grateful, bowing down to You even if we die countless times for the Will.

At this time, we have heard words that made us feel in a new way about the many enemies that block our way to relieving the bitterness of heavenly ethics and to address Your Will anew.

Please let us engrave these new facts we have learned in our hearts, and know that today's words must not stop at changing our feelings on the individual level but have to go on to connect everything to the Will of heavenly law representing the nature of history and the nature of the universe, and that we have the mission to bring this about.

Beloved Father! Please let us fight with hearts of righteous indignation and hearts for the common good, representing heavenly law, facing the many enemies who are blocking the way.

Please let us go forward, enduring again and again, to offer you the day of victory. On the day of victory, please allow us to be able to report to You the sorrows that we endured during that time, and please lead us so that we can go to the place where we can cling to Your precious hand and receive comfort.

Please allow us to awaken all people upon the earth, for they are sleeping. Since the entire world that you created is in the realm of lamentation, please mobilize us and let us restore this, and please grant all people the wisdom of heaven so that we may become citizens of the kingdom of heaven by each one fulfilling their responsibility.

Please let us become sons and daughters who can go forward without hesitation, regardless of what course of struggle lies ahead. We earnestly hope and desire that you will allow us to become heaven's elite troops who can go forth for the Will alone, even if we have to give up everything we have. We have humbly prayed all these things in the name of the Lord. Aju! (May 19, 1957)
