Each one of us, if we look into our failures, is sure to
feel unworthy and despondent, and this feeling only frustrates our constructive
efforts and wastes time. The thing for us to focus on is the glory of the Cause
and the Power of Bahá'u'lláh which can make of a mere drop a surging sea!

a letter dated 13 October 1947 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an
individual believer; The Compilation of Compilations, vol. II, The Power of
Divine Assistance)
