Verse of the Day – 11 Dec

image

Let not thy tongue pay lip service in praise of God while thy heart be not attuned to the exalted Summit of Glory, and the Focal Point of communion.
- The Báb, Selections from the Writings of the Báb, p. 93

...It is not sufficient to pray diligently for guidance, but this prayer must be followed by meditation as to the best methods of action and then action itself. Even if the action should not immediately produce results, or perhaps not be entirely correct, that does not make so much difference, because prayers can only be answered through action and if someone's action is wrong, God can use that method of showing the pathway which is right.
- From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, August 22, 1957
