…as the Cause of God spreads in every land, as our
institutions become more perfected, as the number of believers increases over
the face of the planet, our individual lives must increasingly mirror forth
each day the teachings of Baha'u'llah and we must so live our lives that all
will see in us a different people. The acts we perform, the attitudes we
manifest, the very words we speak should be an attraction, a magnet, drawing
the sincere to the Divine Teachings.
