Day and night I pray to Heaven for you that strength may be
yours, and that, one and all, you may participate in the blessings of
Bahá’u’lláh, and enter into the Kingdom. I supplicate that you may become as
new beings, illumined with the Divine Light, like unto shining lamps, and that
from one end of Europe to the other the knowledge of the Love of God may
spread. May this boundless love so fill your hearts and minds that sadness may
find no room to enter and may you with joyful hearts soar like birds into the
Divine Radiance. May your hearts become clear and pure like unto polished
mirrors in which may be reflected the full glory of the Sun of Truth. May your
eyes be opened to see the signs of the Kingdom of God, and may your ears be
unstopped so that you may hear with a perfect understanding the Heavenly
Proclamation sounding in your midst. May your souls receive help and comfort,
and, being so strengthened, may they be enabled to live in accordance with the
teachings of Bahá’u’lláh.
