O ye Cohorts of God! [1] In the moment of catastrophe, find
ye patience, resignation and submission. The more the calamities are
intensified the less become ye disturbed. Withstand ye, with perfect assurance,
the flood of trials and calamities, through the power of His Highness, the
Almighty.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1)
[1] Revealed in response to a supplication signed by 489
believers in America during the period of the 19-day fast in 1906.
