Let us thank Heavenly Parent, let us thank Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son. Let us thank True Parents. More specifically, let us thank the only begotten Daughter, Holy Mother Han, who is praying for us right now. And I want to thank all of you who are listening, wherever you are, and those of you who are in the hall with us tonight.

In that quiet, unguarded moment [when I visited True Mother], I saw neither confinement nor fear. I saw
a deep and steady light. I saw the light of God in her eyes, a light that shone through Jesus Christ who came as the Way, as the only begotten Son. It is a light that reveals the truth and offers mercy to all who seek it.

Holy Mother Han sought out that light, and God revealed to her through that light that there is no doubt
that Archbishop Stallings is right, that you who know it are right, and I am right tonight to say to all the
world she is the only begotten Daughter of the 21st century.

I am speaking of this not out of sentiment. I speak of this out of conviction. I speak of this out of commitment. For I was more than honored in December of 2019 when the Chosen One chose me among those who would represent her in the World Christian Leadership Conference.

Today I said to Mother Moon, as Holy Mother Han, that we are going to do all that she has asked us to
do. We shall not fail. On this day, what I saw in her eyes was the hope that all of us will come to know the
pathway of Heaven and bring it to earth, that we will become a call, a compass, a covenant for all of the
world.

So I want to join you in doing those three things I promised her that I will do. I want you to follow three
things that we have learned in the Epic History of the Chosen Han People of Korea.

The first thing is I ask you to learn the history of the chosen Han people. And in learning the history of the chosen Han people of Korea, I want you to tell people that this is not a journey about tears and endurance alone. It is a journey about faithful hearts, hearts that have moved from sacrifice to obedience, hearts that understand that what they have learned through history is about those who have paid the cost.

I often ask the Lord, is there a price I have to pay to live this way? And when I looked in the eyes of Holy
Mother Han, I had the answer: [What we pay is] the cost of freedom and the cost of grace, of perseverance.

It is real and True Mother has paid for it, and she is suffering to pay that cost not just for you and for me.
She is paying it for the world.

And secondly, I want us to understand that the chosen Han people whom God chooses to be the chosen
people is not by privilege. It is a responsibility. We have a responsibility to get this world where it ought to be.

With the situation now many of us can look at it and complain and accuse, and we can blame and we can get angry and mad. But when I looked in True Mother’s eyes today, I didn’t see any of that. What I saw wasa woman who wasn’t going by her title. She was going by the fruits of love, the fruits of reconciliation, the fruits of courage and obedience. She was going by the fruits that she wants us to live by each day.

Now I want to give you the third one. And as I do, I want you to know that these three are not invented
by Luonne Rouse. The third is becoming one family of chosen people who serve Heaven on earth. I, with you, must tell the world tonight we are standing here to do God’s work together with Holy Mother Han.

Let every church, let every temple, let every home become a sanctuary of service. Let every leader become a shepherd. Let every nation choose the pathway of peace. This is the world that we can build when we serve Heaven together with Holy Mother Han.

When I looked in the eyes of Holy Mother Han today, I saw God’s dream for humanity and it spoke
bravery into my heart. So I ask us to lift up our hearts, cleanse our motives, and walk the path of sacrificial love.

So like Archbishop Stallings, I want to ask you to stand. And as you stand, I want you to stand in the way
of Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son.

Holy Mother Han is Heaven’s only begotten Daughter of our time, and by the grace and mercy and
humility she has brought upon us, we are standing with God’s daughter. Let us stand, let us stand, let us
stand.

I ask you to proclaim with me, may God bless Holy Mother Han! May God bless Korea! May God bless
every nation!

Because True Mother is winning, we also win. We have the victory of assurance. Let us praise and thank
Heavenly Parent always!
