Take ye good heed lest this calamitous day slacken the flames of your ardour, and quench your tender hopes. Today is the day for #steadfastness and #constancy. Blessed are they that stand firm and immovable as the rock and brave the storm and stress of this tempestuous hour.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá
Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, p. 17
