"O thou who art attracted to the Kingdom of God!..."

O thou who art attracted to the Kingdom of God!

Thy letter was read with the utmost attention. The
poetry was beautiful.

Praise be to God, thou art severed from all else save
the Heavenly Father. Thou hast been of the earth --
thou art now of the Kingdom. Thou hast been of the
world -- thou art now of the Realm of Might. Thou
art spreading the divine Teachings. Thank thou God,
thou art bearing trials in the path of the Kingdom and
art enduring persecutions and sufferings. These afflictions
are conducive to the spiritual development and the
descent of the Holy Spirit.

O thou dear maid-servant of God! I supplicate God
that He suffer thee to become a herald of the Kingdom
in all those places, so that thou mayest proclaim the
glad-tidings of the Lord of Hosts.
