If thy daily living becomes difficult, soon (God) thy Lord
will bestow upon thee that which shall satisfy thee. Be patient in the time of
affliction and trial, endure every difficulty and hardship with dilated heart,
attracted spirit and eloquent tongue in remembrance of the Merciful. Verily
this is the life of satisfaction, the spiritual existence, heavenly repose,
divine benediction and the celestial table! Soon thy Lord will extenuate thy
straightened circumstances even in this world.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1’)
