Blessed
is the spot,
and the house,
and the place,
the city,
and the
heart,
and the mountain,
and the refuge,
and the cave,
and the
valley,
and the land,
and the sea,
and the island,
the meadow,
where mention of God hath been made, and His praise glorified.
- Baha’u’llah
| O God!
Refresh and gladden my spirit.
Purify my heart.
Illumine my powers.
I lay all my affairs in Thy hand.
Thou art my Guide and my Refuge.
I will no longer be sorrowful and grieved; I will be a happy and joyful being.
O God!
I will no longer be full of anxiety, nor will I let trouble harass me.
I will not dwell on the unpleasant things of life.
O God!
Thou art more friend to me than I am to myself.
I dedicate myself to Thee, O Lord.
- 'Abdu'l-Baha |
