"O ye friends of God and daughters of the Kingdom!..."

O ye

friends of God and daughters of the Kingdom!

The letter you have written was considered. It
caused abundant spirit and fragrance. It was not a letter,
it was a rose-garden. The fragrances of the flowers
of significances were exhaling from that garden and
perfumed the nostrils. It was a proof of unity and
oneness and an evidence of love and freedom.

I became very happy through reading it. I hope
that this love and unity may increase day by day, and
its effects may reach other regions. The purpose of the
coming of the Manifestation of the Mount is the unification
of the world of humanity. Therefore, the friends
of God and the daughters of the Kingdom must serve
this purpose and become the cause of joy to the heart
of Abdul-Baha. Thus can they bring together under
the protection of the Tent of Oneness the other nations
and peoples; make this gloomy world radiant, this mundane
earth a plane of the Kingdom, and the material
world the manifestation of divine signs.

O ye friends and daughters of the Kingdom and
leaves of the Blessed Tree! Endeavor to make that
continent the Paradise of Abha, and the West the East
of Lights. This is the hope of Abdul-Baha.
