There can be no
doubt that Americans of African descent can find in themselves the capacity, so
well developed as a result of their long encounter with injustice, to recognize
and respond to the vision of love and justice brought by the Promised One of all
ages. Imbued with that vision, past and present sufferings are transformed into
measures of patience, wisdom and compassion—qualities so essential to the
effort to moderate the discordant ways of a confused world and aid the healing
of its spiritual ills. What better than the transformed character of a bruised
people to smooth the course, to offer perspectives for new beginnings toward
world order!

Universal House of Justice to an individual believer)
