Loneliness
Be not grieved if thou performest it thyself alone. Let God be all-sufficient for thee. Commune intimately with His Spirit, and be thou of the thankful.
- Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 279
O Lord! Grant me communion with Thee in my loneliness, and be my companion in these foreign lands.
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of the Divine Plan, p. 46
There is no harm in thy loneliness in those regions; for verily, the hosts of confirmation are thy help, thy Glorious Lord is thy protector and the angels of the Kingdom are thy fellow-speakers. Glad-tidings be unto thee for this! Blessed art thou for this!
- ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá v1, p. 61
Quote of the Day
Istijlal 15 Asma 183 B.E.
The people in general are all asleep; they are all inadvertent; they are all slumbering, because their thoughts are confined to materialism; they are not at all thoughtful of God's thoughts except you, who are thinking of God. Verily, you are the spirit of the world! You are the cause of the light of the world! You are the salt of the earth!
Bahá’í Scriptures – p. 372-373
