Difficult and delicate though be our task the sustaining
power of Baha'u'llah and of His Divine guidance will assuredly assist us if we
follow steadfastly in His way, and strive to uphold the integrity of His laws.
The light of His redeeming grace, which no earthly power can obscure, will if
we persevere, illuminate our path, as we steer our course amid the snares and
pitfalls of a troubled age, and will enable us to discharge our duties in a
manner that would redound to the glory and the honour of His blessed Name.
- Shoghi Effendi (From a message dated 21 March, 1932, printed in ‘The World
Order of Baha’u’llah’)
