Live
The one reason I wish to live is that I may reveal Thy Cause, and I seek the continuance of life only that I may be touched by adversity in Thy path.
- Bahá’u’lláh, Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh, p. 147
Material civilization is like the body and spiritual civilization is like the soul. Body without soul cannot live.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá in London, p. 30
Ye must live and move according to the divine commands and behests.

Quote of the Day
Jalal 13 Qudrat 182 B.E.
Oppression is the wind that doth fan the fire of the Love of God. Welcome persecution and bitterness. A soldier may bear arms, but until he hath faced the enemy in battle he hath not earned his place in the king's army. Let nothing defeat you. God is your helper. God is invincible. Be firm in the Heavenly Covenant. Pray for strength. It will be given to you, no matter how difficult the conditions.
