“To him who is looking unto God! O thou who art…” 161 |
I supplicate God, beseech Him and pray to Him that
He may deliver the souls from the deluge of tests and
kindle the lamp of sincerity in the midst of the hearts.
As to thee—O thou who art sincere in the Cause of God,
looking unto the Kingdom of God and uttering the
praise of God! —thank thou Him for that by reason of
which He hath made thee wholly faithful in His Cause,
kindled thy heart with the fire of the Testament, illumined
thy mind with the light and conveyed unto thy
spirit the glad-tidings of the breaths of the Holy Spirit
in the world of effulgence. Therefore, roll up thy
sleeves to serve the Covenant, make the hearts firm in
the Covenant of the beloved Lord, create harmony and
agreement among the believers and impart to them the
glad-tidings of the confirmation which they will receive
from God if the differences of opinion be removed and
if they unite and agree, be firm in spreading the fragrance
of God, divulging the traces and chanting the
signs of God. Verily, I send thee good news of the
confirmation which thou shalt receive, the like of which
was never seen by the eyes in those regions, and of the
success, the lights of which will brilliantly shine in those
regions—if thou wilt arise with all thy power to assist
the Testament of God and to serve the Covenant of
God.
