The Words of the Klotz Family |
Anyonghaseyo, dear brothers and sisters!
Here again an inspiration based on the words of True Father:
True Father: "The Blessing is one man and one woman, centering on God's will, becoming true father and true mother, producing TRUE LOVE." [1]
Mansei! The blessing is about "producing" true love. The blessing is about us becoming people of divine love.
True Father: "In matching people I try to make a permanent base. I match from the viewpoint of CENTRAL TRUE LOVE. Sometimes my methods look strange, or labyrinthine, and you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel. But if the end result will be TRUE LOVE, I will go that way." [2]
Aju! The end result of the blessing has to be divine love in the heart of husband and wife. That road may require some investment of heart:
True Father: "Some of you may be thinking, "Father, why did you give me such a person as my fiancée? Couldn't you have picked someone better for me?"
If you think your fiancée is difficult for you to love, you will become the king or queen of love if you learn to love such a person. THIS IS LITERALLY TRUE. Do you think God feels you should have a different fiancée and will change you around? No.
Each of you has an ENDLESS REALM OF LOVE to connect with if you make a success out of your relationship. Certainly God wants to fill you with everything you need." [2]
Amen! God may have given us a "difficult spouse", but He would not want to make changes. Because if the spouse is "difficult", God had a purpose for this from the start. He wants us to overcome that difficulty, not by us pressurizing the spouse to change, but to change ourselves, to advance in love ourselves.
If husband and wife live according to this mentality, if they focus on making their own heart grow, then they become King and Queen of Love. And that very thing is God's highest desire.
True Father: "The couples I create will march forward as FLAG BEARERS who can LOVE THEIR ENEMIES. Together they will become princes and princesses of God. This is the exciting life we live." [3]
Wow! Here we can see the vision that God has for the blessed couples. He wants us to learn to love our enemies. And what helps us to get there? The challenges of heart in the husband-wife relationship. Those who face those challenges WILLINGLY, developing their love and heart through the possibly difficult relationship with the spouse, they can become flag bearers of divine love. Hallelujah!
True Father: "As blessed couples, you are inheriting that tradition [True Parents' tradition]. You must receive it and uphold it, clean and pure. In order to inherit that tradition, you must BECOME LIKE THE TRUE PARENTS. You must live like them and EMBRACE HEAVEN AND EARTH, the entire world and humanity. Then you can say, "Yes, Father, we inherited that tradition." [4]
Wow! Father wants the blessed couples to learn to truly love, thus inheriting his tradition of divine love. He wants us to become like True Parents, being able to love the whole world, just like God and True Parents do.
True Father: "Marriage is for the purpose of blending men and women into GOD-LIKE FIGURES, to put people into the IMAGE OF GOD, so that when they are elevated into spirit world they can enjoy a relationship with God together." [5]
God-like figures! That is huge dynamite! This is indeed the high expectation that God and True Parents have for the blessed couples! But we can achieve these things, step by step, as long as our focus is to love the way God does, unconditionally, forgetting ourselves, not expecting or demanding anything [apart from ourselves] but just to invest heart and love and forget what was given. And then invest again, forgive again and again, lift up the other person and embrace him or her no matter what.
If we strive to live like that, then we become more and more people without shadow, as Father called it. We become more and more God-like. And this certainly determines our happiness more than anything else:
True Father: "Therefore the true measure of your happiness is whether you are close to the central standard of true love. Happiness or unhappiness cannot be determined by how much money you have, but only by the PURITY with which you exercise TRUE LOVE." [6] Wow! Father is really putting our priorities straight here.
True Father: "Once you are blessed, that goes on for eternity. Your couple shall be preserved as a TRUE FAMILY coming out of this root. I know it is not easy in many cases, but no matter how difficult it may be, would you like to pursue my teaching and way of life?
Or would you like to be a butterfly, flitting from one love to another? You are following this way because that is how you can be connected to God and possess God's ABSOLUTE LOVE.
Once we possess the love of God, we possess EVERYTHING in the universe. With TRUE LOVE we can even CONTROL GOD. How much HAPPINESS that can bring!" [7]
Indeed! It may not be easy, but in the end we will be God-like people, who can even control God Himself. That will be the greatest happiness one can imagine, even beyond our present imagination.
True Father: "Have I given you too much tough material this morning? Did my sermon interfere with plans you had for your future family life, perhaps a cozy apartment with no interruptions and lots of love and joy? I preached the wrong sermon for that! I'm sorry, but I have to do it. Do you thank me or hate me for these words today?
Within this PRINCIPLE OF TRUE LOVE you have total freedom of conscience and you can TRULY BE HAPPY. For eternity you will not be able to praise each other enough. Was this Blessing given to you freely or was it earned by you? It is given by heaven, as God's gift.
Why does God give it to you? He wants to see TRUE LOVE consummated within you and your home." [5]
Yes, the blessing is God's gift. It may be a blessing in disguise. The more we fulfill the purpose of the blessing, which is to become divine people, the more we will see its real value. This becomes even more clear with the next words of Father:
True Father: "Think to your self, "With my own blessed couple I can UNIFY THE WORLD and cosmos. Once I perfect myself, I can create a perfected family, race, world and cosmos." We are the SEEDS to give rise to that work...
We have to think that there is no nationality among blessed couples. There is no difference between them.
Without the Unification Church and [even] if the unified nation also does not come, as long as my blessed couple exists, THE WILL OF GOD WILL BE DONE." [8]
This shows pretty clearly the importance of the blessed couple. It becomes even more clear:
True Father: "Even if the Unification Church closes, and all the Unification Church disappears, as long as that PERFECT blessed couple REMAINS, the world can be UNITED. Because the TRUTH would REMAIN even if the Unification Church disappeared. My teaching and tradition are here. As long as ONE SINGLE COUPLE STICKS WITH IT, we can accomplish God's will and Satan cannot interfere." [8]
If that is not real dynamite then I do not know what is!
True Father: "As long as you become the TRUE COUPLE representing God and True Parents, you do not need anybody. You represent the ENTIRE HISTORY and ENTIRE HUMANITY. You represent all blessed couples living in the 4th Adam's era...." [8]
By developing our heart and becoming people of heavenly heart, by inheriting the love of God, step by step, we become such historical people, more historical than we ever thought! And we become the most happy people in the whole world at the same time. And we can make a huge difference in this world, moving the providence into the right direction! How happy will God be!
Aju and Amen!
