In this day, to serve the Cause of God is to engender love
and fellowship amongst His friends. Let us associate with one another with the
utmost selflessness and evanescence, with radiance of spirit, with meekness,
humility, and faithfulness. Let us strive to spread the divine fragrances, for
the receptiveness of the people in these days is exceedingly great. Should
there be a lapse, it would be due to our failings, the cause of which is a lack
of unity and concord.

Grace to Serve Thy Loved Ones’, prepared by the International Teaching Centre
