"O thou who art attracted toward the Kingdom!..."

1 |
O thou who art attracted toward the Kingdom!
|
2 |
Be thou not unhappy; the tempest of sorrow shall
pass; regret will not last; disappointment will vanish;
the fire of the love of God will become enkindled, and
the thorns and briars of sadness and despondency will
be consumed! Be thou happy; rest thou assured upon
the favors of Baha', so that uncertainty and hesitation
may become non-existent and the invisible outpourings
descend upon the arena of being!
|
3 |
If thou art seeking after spiritual tranquility, turn
thy face at all times toward the Kingdom of Abha.
If thou art desiring divine joy, free thyself from the
bands of attachment. if thou art wishing for the confirmation
of the Holy Spirit, become thou engaged in
teaching the Cause of God.

4 |
If the friends and relatives are keeping themselves
at a distance from thee, be thou not sad, for God is near
to thee. Associate thou, as much as thou canst, with
the relatives and strangers; display thou loving kindness;
show thou forth the utmost patience and resignation.
The more they oppose thee, shower thou upon
them the greater justice and equity; the more they
show hatred and opposition toward thee, challenge thou
them with great truthfulness, friendship and reconciliation.
|
5 |
Praise be to God, thou art near to the Kingdom of
Abha! Rest thou assured. With all my soul and
spirit, I am thy companion at all moments. Know thou
this of a certainty!

I prayed in behalf of thy relatives and family, supplicating
from God confirmation and assistance for them.
