The troubles of this world pass, and what we have left is what we have made of our souls, so it is to this we must look to becoming more spiritual, drawing nearer to God, no matter what our human minds and bodies go through.
Shoghi EffendiWe must be like the fountain or spring that is continually emptying itself of all that it has and is continually being refilled from an invisible source. To be continually giving out for the good of our fellows undeterred by fear of poverty and reliant on the unfailing bounty of the Source of all wealth and all good -- this is the secret of right living.
Shoghi EffendiWe must not only be patient with others, infinitely patient, but also with our own poor selves.
Shoghi EffendiOur past is not the thing that matters so much in this world as what we intend to do with the future.
