We render thanks unto God for whatsoever hath befallen Us,
and We patiently endure the things He hath ordained in the past or will ordain
in the future. In Him have I placed My trust; and into His hands have I
committed My Cause. He will, certainly, repay all them that endure with
patience and put their confidence in Him. His is the creation and its empire.
He exalteth whom He will, and whom He will He doth abase. He shall not be asked
of His doings. He, verily, is the All-Glorious, the Almighty.
- Baha’u’llah (From a Tablet to Sultan ‘Abdu’l-‘Aziz; ‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah’)
