Thy day of service is now come… Arise for the triumph of My
Cause, and, through the power of thine utterance, subdue the hearts of men.
Thou must show forth that which will ensure the peace and the well-being of the
miserable and the down-trodden. Gird up the loins of thine endeavor, that
perchance thou mayest release the captive from his chains, and enable him to
attain unto true liberty.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah’)
