By the might of my Lord, verily, the Lord will assist only
those who will remain firm in His Cause, and desire union, love, humility and
submissiveness, and to become separated from aught else save God. Every
forehead which is illuminated with these lights will be a lamp of guidance and
a star whereby all horizons will be lighted. Exert thyself with all thy heart and soul and with all
strength, so that thou mayest become a sign of firmness and as a banner of the
Word of God which may wave on every lofty edifice through the favor of thy
Glorious Lord.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1)
