“O SON OF BEING! With the hands of power I made thee and with the fingers of strength I created thee; and within thee have I placed the essence of My light. Be thou content with it and seek naught else, for My work is perfect and My command is binding. Question it not, nor have a doubt thereof.”

“In the darksome night of despair, my eye turneth expectant and full
of hope to the morn of Thy boundless favor and at the hour of dawn my
drooping soul is refreshed and strengthened in remembrance of Thy
beauty and perfection. He whom the grace of Thy mercy aideth, though
he be but a drop, shall become the boundless ocean, and the merest
atom which the outpouring of Thy loving-kindness assisteth, shall
shine even as the radiant star.” -‘Abdu’l-Bahá
