"Day and night I entreat and supplicate to the Kingdom of God and beg for you infinite assistance and confirmation. Do not take into consideration your own aptitudes and capacities, but fix your gaze on the consummate bounty, the divine bestowal and the power of the Holy Spirit - the power that converteth the drop into a sea and the star into a sun." ('Abdu'l-Bahá: Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Bahá, Page 104) |

O Daughter of the Kingdom! …thou
hast directed all thy thoughts toward acquiring light from the realms of
mystery. So long as the
thoughts of an individual are scattered he will achieve no results, but if his thinking
be concentrated on a single point wonderful will be the fruits thereof. …Thus it
is necessary to focus one’s thinking on a single point so that it will
become an effective force. (Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá #73) |
