God exists. If we say vaguely that God exists, we feel God is far away from us. If God exists, what kind of relationship should exist between Himself and ourselves? How we relate with God is the important question. (130-209)

"God exists." Those are not only words: When we think of God via the principle centering on the relationship between subject and object, God is not only an inevitable existence, but existed before our thinking. God influences all of our feelings and our whole body. To recognize this is most important.

Don't you think the Principle is to know something after recognizing it? To recognize something after knowing it is not the Principle. Knowing after recognizing. When it is cold, we say, "It is cold. "This not knowing after feeling, but it is feeling followed by knowing. In the same way, if God exists you have to feel Him. You should feel Him existing in your cells. The problem is how to establish those circumstances through experience. (58-291)

Now, when we ask ourselves whether or not we received God's love or are we receiving God's love, what kind of answer comes? Today there are many theologians who do not know whether there is a God in this world or not. How about members of the Unification Church? We should know God through experience. We should just feel God. The Unification Church has its share of love to receive from God. We should receive that share of love. (128-130)

This is the issue. You should be able to say, "Father" when you are sleeping or talking to yourself. We should be filled with the love of Heavenly Father much more than other people are filled with love of their object. When we forget to eat and sleep because of our beloved Father, and we call out "Father!" then even if we think Heavenly Father is not with us, His hand will be holding our hand. Such things happen. The dream becomes a reality. When we call out "Father," we are held in the Heavenly Father's bosom. You should know that the most important issue is how to have such experiences as these in our lives of faith. Such experiences, their frequency and the degree of feeling, would be the standard of our life of faith.

If you have a heart of love, you would say, "I have to do this, so please do it with me;" and then God is already with you wherever you go. When you feel that, God becomes our "Gracious and kindly God." (58-299)
