Bear
Our Cause is sorely trying, highly perplexing; none can bear it except a favorite of heaven, or an inspired Prophet, or he whose faith God hath tested.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Kitab-i-Iqan, p. 82
Thou wert created to bear and endure, O Patience of the worlds.
- Bahá’u’lláh, The Fire Tablet, Bahá’í Prayers, p. 317
Obedience to the Laws of Bahá’u’lláh will necessarily impose hardships in individual cases. No one should expect, upon becoming a Bahá’í, that faith will not be tested, and to our finite understanding of such matters these tests may occasionally seem unbearable.

Quote of the Day
Fidal 12 Mulk 182 B.E.
Ya Bahá'u'l-Abhá is an invocation meaning: 'O Thou Glory of Glories'! 'Allah-u-Abhá' is a greeting which means: God the All-Glorious'. Both refer to Bahá’u’lláh.
