“Recite ye the verses of God every morn and eventide.” (Bahá’u’lláh, ‘The Kitáb-i-Aqdas’)

October 10

Morning

In the concluding passages of the Tablet to His Majesty the Emperor of Paris (Napoleon III) these exalted words have been revealed: “Exultest thou over the treasures thou dost possess, knowing they shall perish? Rejoicest thou in that thou rulest a span of earth, when the whole world, in the estimation of the people of Bahá, is worth as much as the black in the eye of a dead ant? Abandon it unto such as have set their affections upon it, and turn thou unto Him Who is the Desire of the world.” 

- Baha’u’llah (‘Epistle to the Son of the Wolf’)

Evening

O Son of Man! For everything there is a sign. The sign of love is fortitude under My decree and patience under My trials. 

- Baha’u’llah (‘The Hidden Words’)
