God has chosen you from among mankind, and has guided you to
the Kingdom, has enlightened your hearts with the love of God, so that you may
be the cause of guidance to these people, in order that you may become a cause
of guidance to the world of humanity. He has appointed you as the builders of
the edifice of true manhood. Consider with what a power of morals you must
arise in order to withstand all vicissitudes.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet;
Star of the West, vol. 5. No. 9, August 20, 1914)
