January 29

The Kingdom of God is possessed of limitless potency. Audacious must be the army of life if the confirming aid of that Kingdom is to be repeatedly vouchsafed unto it.... Vast is the arena, and the time ripe to spur on the charger within it. Now is the time to reveal the force of one’s strength, the stoutness of one’s heart and the might of one’s soul. 
(‘Abdu’l-Baha, from a Tablet, quoted by Shoghi Effendi in a letter dated January 28, 1939; ‘Messages to America’)
