[Letter of January 24, 1937] |
|
On behalf of the Guardian … (I) wish to assure you again of his
abiding appreciation of the splendid activities in which you are so
laboriously and so devotedly engaged for the spread and establishment
of the Cause in Japan. Do not feel discouraged at the meagerness of
the results you now obtain. The Master’s promises regarding the share
you are destined to contribute towards the spread of the Faith in the
Far East will sooner or later be completely realized. No matter how
dark the present may appear, you should feel nevertheless confident
that the distant future is immeasurably bright. Strive, therefore, with
a joyful radiant and confident heart to hasten the fulfillment of
‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s glorious promises. Your reward is unimaginably
great, and the success that awaits your labours certain.
