“O ye two dear maid-servants of God!…”

507
O ye two 1 dear maid-servants of God!
Man must prove whatsoever he speaketh by deeds and actions. If he claim faith, he must live and do according to the teachings of the Kingdom of Abha.
Praise be to God! you have proved your words by deeds, were confirmed by divine strength and have gathered together the Bahai children in the morn and taught them communion (prayers). This deed is very acceptable and the joy of hearts, that children gather every morn and turn to the Kingdom, mention God and commune in the utmost of sweetness and bounty.
Those children are like plants and this teaching and praying as rain which gives freshness and delicacy and as the zephyr of the love of God which revives.
Blessed are ye and good is your end!
1. Addressed to two maid-servants living in the same household.   [ Back To Reference]
