My God, the Object of my adoration, the Goal of my desire,
the All-Bountiful, the Most Compassionate! All life is of Thee, and all power
lieth within the grasp of Thine omnipotence. Whosoever Thou exaltest is raised
above the angels, and attaineth the station: ‘Verily, We uplifted him to a
place on high!’; and whosoever Thou dost abase is made lower than dust, nay,
less than nothing. - Baha’u’llah (‘Epistle to the Son of the Wolf’)
