April 8

Morning

They that immerse themselves in the ocean of His utterances should at all times have the utmost regard for the divinely-revealed ordinances and prohibitions. Indeed His ordinances constitute the mightiest stronghold for the protection of the world and the safeguarding of its peoples—a light upon those who acknowledge and recognize the truth, and a fire unto such as turn away and deny. 

- Baha’u’llah  (‘Tajalliyat (Effulgences), ‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)

Evening

Should resentment or antipathy arise between husband and wife, he is not to divorce her but to bide in patience throughout the course of one whole year, that perchance the fragrance of affection may be renewed between them. If, upon the completion of this period, their love hath not returned, it is permissible for divorce to take place. God’s wisdom, verily, hath encompassed all things. 

- Baha’u’llah  ('The Kitab-i-Aqdas')
