…strive that your actions day by day may be beautiful
prayers. Turn towards God, and seek always to do that which is right and noble.
Enrich the poor, raise the fallen, comfort the sorrowful, bring healing to the
sick, reassure the fearful, rescue the oppressed, bring hope to the hopeless,
shelter the destitute! This is the work of a true Bahá’í…
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a
talk, 8 November 1911, Paris, ‘Paris Talks’)
