The dark horizon faced by a world which has failed to
recognize the Promised One, the Source of its salvation, acutely affects the
outlook of the younger generations; their distressing lack of hope and their
indulgence in desperate but futile and even dangerous solutions make a direct
claim on the remedial attention of Bahá'í youth, who, through their knowledge
of that Source and the bright vision with which they have thus been endowed,
cannot hesitate to impart to their despairing fellow youth the restorative joy,
the constructive hope, the radiant assurances of Bahá'u'lláh's stupendous
Revelation.

addressed to the Baha’i youth of the world; Messages from the Universal House
