Abdu’l-Bahá - Hurts
My heart aches, for I note with intense regret that the attention of the people is nowhere directed toward that which is worthy of this day and time. The Sun of Truth has risen above the world but we are ensnared in the dark of our imaginings. The waters of the Most Great Sea are surging all around us, while we are parched and weak with thirst. The divine bread is coming down from heaven, and yet we grope and stumble in a famine-stricken land.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, The Secret of Divine Civilization, p. 50
Quote of the Day
Istijlal 8 Asma 183 B.E.
And we ask Him (exalted is He) to make thee a helper unto His religion and a regarder of His justice, that thou mayest rule over [His] servants as thou rulest over those of thy kindred, and mayest choose for them what thou wouldest choose for thyself.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá – A Traveller's Narrative, p. 82
