Oh, Father! The closer that the time comes to meeting the Lord of resurrection, the more hesitant our minds become. As the time comes closer, please let us imagine even more Jesus Christ, who embraced the sorrowful destiny of death.
We have come to know that he who died at the seat of punishment, passed on with enmity in his heart. Since we have come to know that the mount of Golgotha that he walked upon was a peak of the tears of destiny, we know that the blood and sweat he shed have lived on in the history of destiny until today, and they are being resurrected and are going into the innermost hearts of each human being.
Because of the blood and sweat that were shed in the center of the Will of the historical providence of destiny, we know that all these things will move forward through that blood and sweat, until that destiny conies into existence. We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will allow us to become people who are filled with that kind of heart today, and who are in that kind of state.
The Lord who passed on like this, the Lord, who was the bridegroom, said that he would go through a history of destiny and come again. Since we know that the Lord inclines his mind and body towards us and that the heart of the Lord earnestly desires to seek and establish us, please allow us to have minds that earnestly desire to be our real selves and to be proud of our adorned appearances before all people.
As we seek to go that way, we find an evil world; since the way that the Lord walked remains, we must walk over the remaining peak of the people, and we must walk over the remaining peak of the world by enduring, and enduring, and enduring again. We have come to know for the first time that it will not do unless we maintain, by enduring, a history of martyrdom, which can go over the peak of the cross, which remains on the earth now.
Now please let us feel that destiny with new minds, and anticipate it with new minds, and be able to go forth until the day that we can cling to you and weep Father, while enduring with new minds, and please allow us to become able to go beyond the destiny of accumulated sorrow. While earnestly request that you will let us become sons and daughters who can tread upon the authority of death by enduring and remaining until the time that we can boast of the destiny of joy, and sing of the glory of resurrection.
We have humbly prayed all these things in the name of the Lord. Amen.
