4/6/25

April 6

Morning

Know ye that a servant’s glory resideth in his nearness unto God, and that, unless he draweth nigh unto Him, naught else can ever profit him, even should he hold sway over the entire creation. 

- Baha’u’llah  (Quoted by Shoghi Effendi in ‘The Promised Day Is Come’; Suriy-i-Muluk [Tablet to the Kings]; ‘Summons of the Lord of Hosts’)

Evening

Should any one of you rule over the whole earth, and over all that lieth within it and upon it, its seas, its lands, its mountains, and its plains, and yet be not remembered by God, all these would profit him not, could ye but know it.... 

- Baha’u’llah  (Quoted by Shoghi Effendi in ‘The Promised Day Is Come’; Suriy-i-Muluk [Tablet to the Kings]; ‘Summons of the Lord of Hosts’)
