Her Suffering Was Never a Requirement

Thank you for conveying the heart of True Mother [Holy Mother Han] that lay deep within the hidden history of our church. I am a second generation member who was raised during the period when True Mother [Holy Mother Han] began to take leadership in our movement. Naturally, I always felt a deeper love and admiration toward her. However, when opportunities to see True Mother [Holy Mother Han] in person came to a halt, I began to feel a block — questioning whether she truly felt anything toward the rest of us.

One moment I clearly remember was when I first deeply understood the pain of True Mother's [Holy Mother Han's] heart. I remember crying for three days straight, sobbing every time I read her words or tried to convey them to someone else. During this gathering, however, something struck me that I had never considered before — that True Mother [Holy Mother Han], as the Only Begotten Daughter, did not have to endure the suffering she went through. I had never questioned whether she was required to suffer. In that moment I felt deep repentance for not realizing sooner that her suffering was not a requirement, but the result of ignorance.

During this gathering, I heard certain truths for the first time that brought a lot of pain. And yet, knowing that True Mother [Holy Mother Han] was hurt most by the person she loved most, I was able to recognize an even deeper love she carries for him. Her love is beyond human emotion, and that is why she is truly the Only Begotten Daughter.

Through this gathering, I feel so grateful to now have an even stronger conviction in my faith — one I hope to carry forward and share with future generations who will not be able to grow in the same timeline she has lived.
