“O thou maid-servant of God!…” |
Truly, I say, complete capacity and ability is the
cause of the appearance of the divine gifts. Souls are
many who in the years gone by have listened to the glad-tidings,
but up to this time they have remained veiled,
deprived and unmoved. But, through the bounty of the
Beauty of Abha, as soon as thou didst hear the call,
thou didst turn thy face toward the Lord of Hosts and
became a believer in God and assured of His divine
verses. Immediately the Most Great Name made an
impression upon thee. Therefore, I hope thy breath
may become also effective and in a short time, like unto
dry wood, become enkindled and ignited.

Do not wonder at the mercy and bounty of God.

Consider thou how one spark sets on fire a great forest.
Therefore, there is great hope, and the favor and grace
of the Almighty is limitless.
