The Words of the Klotz Family |
Anyonghaseyo, dear brothers and sisters!
Here again some inspiration, based on the words of True Father:
True Father: "What matters is not whom Mother or I love the most, but who will be the king or queen of loving brothers and sisters." [1]
We might get all the attention from True Parents, but if we do not love people the way God does, then God and True Parents cannot be happy with us. Because God and True Parents want us to be able to love the way God does and True Parents do, nothing less.
Unity with True Parents does not mean to be often praised by them, but to LOVE like them. It does not matter if we receive praise from True Parents or not, but what matters is the quality of our love for people, for humanity. That is all that matters. All that matters is if we have the right heart for God and the people of the world:
True Father: "Children of filial piety are those who feel a parental heart. It doesn't matter what worldly knowledge or position you have. The only thing that matters is whether you have the HEART OF HEAVEN." [2]
The only thing that really matters is if we develop the Heart of Heaven within ourselves. If we do that, we become giants in the sight of God:
True Father: "I WATCH YOU more closely than you realize and seek to nurture you so that you can GROW INTO GIANTS in the sight of God." [3]
God and True Parents certainly want us to become giants of divine love. The more we become such people, the more we can move history:
True Father: "Isn't the backbone of everything love? An eternal, unchanging love, unique love. Love that can MOVE HISTORY. Love that penetrates history instead of being punished by history. Do you desire such a love? Don't you want it? [4]
Certainly the backbone of everything is love. Love can move history. It can move the providence. It has such a huge impact, especially if it is of the highest quality, the quality of the love of God and True Parents:
True Father: "If you have such great love that you can love EVEN YOUR ENEMY, that power will melt everything. God needs a movement that can melt the wrong world down and change it into the right one." [5]
True Father: "If you put yourself in the position of God or Jesus -- trusting persons while they betray you, loving persons when they don't deserve it, wanting to live and care for those persons while they are not qualified -- the WORLD WILL CHANGE." [6]
True Father: "Jesus was crucified and externally speaking he was a failure; however, he dramatically demonstrated his love for humanity by forgiving and loving his own enemies. That deed made him a VICTOR OF LOVE. Love CONQUERS ALL and nothing can displace or overthrow it. Once you occupy this HIGHEST PINNACLE OF LOVE no one can topple you." [7]
Wow! Such is the power of divine love! Mansei to divine love!
To bring about God's Kingdom, God needs people who are willing to practice such love. True Parents have done that all their lives.
True Father: "Reverend Moon is one man who has been embracing everyone, including good people and EVIL people, trying to melt all their qualities with the TRUE LOVE OF GOD. No one has thought in that fashion, let alone lived his entire life that way. Without a doubt, all mankind shall come under THIS ONE TRADITION. The True Father and Mother have committed their lives for the sake of THEIR MISSION, for EMBRACING THE ENEMY WORLD." [8]
Embracing the unlovable, the enemy, is the "mission" of True Parents. This is the key for building God's Kingdom. God and True Parents want us to use this very same key. This is not only True Parents' mission, but ours as well. Without people using this key, there is no Kingdom of God emerging:
True Father: "Even though you are persecuted by all of this world, which is the realm of the enemy, you must love the evildoer WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART. That is the CONDITION YOU HAVE TO FULFILL.
God is MOST CONCERNED about that condition, so those people who are striving to be God's children should ALSO be most concerned about it. This standard of loving might appear simple, but it is the very BOUNDARY LINE between God and Satan....
In order to go beyond this boundary, God cannot even regard His enemy as an enemy, and He must not take revenge. The conclusion is to LOVE our enemy." [9]
Then who is the enemy? People who hate us, betray us, oppose us, who do not like us, or whom we ourselves do not like. By loving such people we break down barriers, not only on the earth and in spiritual world, but first and foremost in our heart. And our personality becomes more and more God-like.
True Father: "You must make daily efforts and struggle to overcome the LIMITATIONS of your heart. That is what we are here for … what we are doing is as PERMANENT as a rock. " [10]
That is what we are here for! Clear enough!
True Father: "You will only deserve my attention by totally loving the world and the universe… My CENTRAL TEACHING is this: As much as you love me you must equally love the world, mankind and the universe." [10]
As soon as we are practicing God's way of loving, then God and True Parents are certainly proud of us. Then we "deserve" their attention. But whether we get this attention or not, should not make the slightest difference.
Divine sons and daughters of God do not depend on attention or praise, simply because that is not what they are seeking for. They are only seeking to establish the tradition of God's love, just as God and True Parents do.
If we become such divine sons and daughters, then God can exercise His power fully:
True Father: "Before God hits the power of evil, we must accomplish the desire of God." [11]
By us truly becoming divine sons and daughters of God, who love the way God does, we are certainly accomplishing the "desire of God." That is our 5%. And then God can do the remaining 95%, which is smashing Satan's world into pieces and ushering in the Kingdom of God.
Love from Bruno. Have a blessed and victorious 2014!
