Observe how dear thou wert that He guided thee to the
Kingdom of Light, and how near to His Threshold, that He granted thee admission
into His Court. Thou were poor in spirit; He led thee to the Heavenly Treasure.
Thou wert in quest of illumination; He enlightened thee through the rays of the
Sun of Truth. Thou wert athirst; He led thee to the Spring of Life. Thou wert
sick; He bestowed upon thee the Heavenly Remedy.
(‘Abdu’l-Baha, ‘Tablets of
‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1’)
