Understanding the Weight of the Only Begotten Daughter

I didn't know what I was getting myself into when I was invited, but I'm so glad I went. I feel like God guided me to this opportunity to better understand True Mother [Holy Mother Han], her heart, and the truth about this movement's past. Even though I've heard that True Mother [Holy Mother Han] is the Only Begotten Daughter, I feel like it never truly clicked just how important she is to Heavenly Parent, humankind, and the world. There will ever only be one Only Begotten Daughter, and we were chosen to be alive on this earth at the same time as her.

Growing up, I lived a pretty sheltered life. Even though I had heard some rumors about our church, I never really believed they were true. I mostly had blind faith and didn't question much. So hearing about what True Mother [Holy Mother Han] had to endure really broke my heart. It opened my eyes to see that True Father [Reverend Moon] was also a human being with flaws who could make mistakes. I have a much greater appreciation for True Mother [Holy Mother Han] for everything she has gone through and continues to do for Heavenly Parent and humanity.

It is easier for me to extend forgiveness toward True Father [Reverend Moon] when I reflect on how True Mother [Holy Mother Han] herself has forgiven him and how much she loves him. I have more empathy for the children of Holy Mother Han knowing how much they had to go through. I truly hope and pray that all of them will come back and support our True Mother [Holy Mother Han].

I am grateful to Dr. Chang for coming all the way to share her heart and knowledge with us. Even though the topics were hard and heavy, she relayed everything with compassion and empathy.
