“O thou who art advancing unto the Kingdom of God!…” |

Verily, I read thy beautiful letter, its good composition,
and I scented from the garden of its significances
the fragrance of God’s love. I pray God to confirm
thee in the Path, to cause thee to enter the Ark of
Safety, to reveal unto thee the signs and manifest to
thee the evidences; thus thou mayest be firm in the
love of God, steadfast in the religion of God and a
growing tree by the bounty of the Kingdom of
El-ABHA.

O maid-servant of God! Be rejoiced for God hath
made thee a believing maid-servant in His Holy
Threshold and a leaf of the leaves of the Tree of Life.
If God giveth thee good descendants and a manly son,
rest assured in that he will be a good son, looking unto
141
the Supreme Horizon and confident in his soul by the
favors of the Lord of the High Heavens.

I supplicate God to make His beloved ones in Cincinnati
(O.) glow with the fire of Sinai, imploring unto the
Kingdom of El-ABHA, meek and lowly for the sake
of God among His beloved, denying self and passion,
grasping the rope of piety, so that they may be lamps
of guidance in those regions. I pray God to make thee
a maid-servant whose garment shall be faithfulness and
the crown of her head the love of El-Baha.
