Thou art most dear to Us; and, as We love thee, so love We
all in whom may be perceived the goodly adornments of trustworthiness and
uprightness, and such qualities of virtue and integrity as have been enjoined
upon men in the Book of God, the Lord of the Mighty Throne. Happy the lot of
the soul that hath perceived the fragrant breaths of divine utterance, and
given ear to what hath been revealed by God, the Omniscient, the All-Informed.
God hath, verily, willed that His Cause should be assisted by the hosts of
goodly deeds and a righteous character. Blessed, then, be the man that
apprehendeth this truth and acteth conformably; and woe betide those who ignore
or deny it! (Baha’u’llah, The Compilation of Compilations, Vol. II,
Trustworthiness)
