...Bahá'ís in their deep love for Bahá'u'lláh, should be
eager to apply every spiritual precept in their own lives while at the
same time exercising patience, forbearance and forgiveness in respect to the
shortcomings of others. It is for the Institutions of the Faith to adopt such
programmes as will deepen the believers in their understanding of the teachings
so that they will unhesitatingly and eagerly follow Him.
