June 5

Thank God for saving thee from baseness, trouble, selfishness and death, and (that He) took away the veil from before thine eyes, manifested unto thee the Beauty of Abha, granted thee healing, planted in thy heart the seed of love and thereby chose thee from among the maid-servants. Therefore, endeavor so that thou dedicate (thyself) entirely to God; no thought or mention should remain in thee save the name of thy Supreme Lord. Endeavor so that those countries become illumined by the light of the gift of God.
