Father! Today at this time we dare to consider your heart when you were creating all the things of creation. It is the purpose and the hope of the original creation that the destined relationship of one family be formed in relation to the entire universe on the foundation of your heart which is the center of happiness and rejoicing and is the center of all things.
When we think about that, we realize that today this earth has repeated the history of the fall without having become united, centered on your heart, on your hope, or on your situation. Please guide us to become people who are able to repent once again for all our historical inadequacies, while thinking about all these kinds of things.
Please have compassion, Father, for the many people who must run along the way of the battle for the sake of the hope of tomorrow, while not having been able to cast away the world of death as a vet. And we earnestly hope that you will have compassion for the many believers who, kicking aside the present age, are rushing forward today in the direction of the land of the original homeland which is the land of the ideal of creation which you wanted to accomplish.
We know, Father, that there is a great deal of grief in your heart, in the heart of our Father, who has gone through the most adverse situations among adverse situations, while acting and taking responsibility for the past, the present, and the future.
When we consider the sorrowful past in which people ended up pounding nails into your heart, even thought they should have sung songs praising your eternal idea and heart in front of your heart and your ideal, please let us bear deep in our minds once again that we are people who must bow our heads and kneel before you, while feeling how sorrowful your heart must have been, and who must raise an altar of atonement.
Father! In the long course of history, many days have flowed by, but were you able to be happy for even a single day among them? In this kind of flow of history, you have sought and established a true day of parents on this earth, and you have found and established a true day of all things.
Father, today is the very Day of All Things that you sought by working so hard.
Father! We cannot help but have minds that are filled with deep emotion as we greet this day today while reflecting once again on the providence that you have worked hard on and carried out.
Along the course that has flowed by, you have walked forward through the miserable adversity of sorrow and anguish, we come to feel once again that these were days that you prepared while promising the one day of certain victory about the Will of your mighty providence.
Father! We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will awaken us to the fact that we are people who must be grateful thousands and hundreds of thousands of times when we think that the greater the adversity was in the past, it appears as a condition for greater gratitude today. Desiring that you will fill all with ample grace today on this day which is a day of joy and glory, we have humbly prayed all these things in the holy name of the True Parents. Amen.
Dr. Sun Myung Moon
