And likewise, He saith: “Say to them that are of a fearful
heart: be strong, fear not, behold your God.” [1] This blessed verse is a proof
of the greatness of the Revelation, and of the greatness of the Cause, inasmuch
as the blast of the trumpet must needs spread confusion throughout the world,
and fear and trembling amongst all men. Well is it with him who hath been
illumined with the light of trust and detachment. The tribulations of that Day
will not hinder or alarm him. Thus hath the Tongue of Utterance spoken, as
bidden by Him Who is the All-Merciful.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Epistle to the Son of the
Wolf’)
[1] Isaiah 35:4]
