…we must never forget that our service is a spiritual one.
Mankind is dying for lack of true religion and this is what we have to offer to
humanity. It is the love of God, manifest in the appearance of Bahá'u'lláh,
which will feed the hungry souls of the world and eventually lead the peoples
out of the present morass into the orderly, uplifting, and soul-inspiring task
of establishing God's Kingdom on earth.
