Runningfox M.	August 03, 2009 5:17 PM August 3 Praise be unto God, incomparable in majesty, power and beauty, peerless in glory, might and grandeur; too high is He for human imaginations to comprehend Him or for any peer or equal to be ascribed unto Him. ~ Bahá’u’lláh [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	May 31, 2009 1:41 PM May 31 I have risen this morning by Thy grace, O my God, and left my home trusting wholly in Thee, and committing myself to Thy care. Send down, then, upon me, out of the heaven of Thy mercy, a blessing from Thy side, and enable me to return home in safety even as Thou didst enable me to set out under Thy protection with my thoughts fixed steadfastly upon Thee. There is none other God but Thee, the One, the Incomparable, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. ~ Bahá’u’lláh [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	May 16, 2009 3:07 PM May 16 I supplicate God that the coverings may be removed, the Beauty of Truth become apparent and evident, in order that thou mayest be taught in the wisdom of God, become a great teacher in the world of humanity and all thy desires be attained. ~ ‘Abdu’l-Bahá [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	May 13, 2009 6:28 PM May 13 Whoso hath inhaled the sweet fragrance of the All-Merciful, and recognized the Source of this utterance, will welcome with his own eyes the shafts of the enemy, that he may establish the truth of the laws of God amongst men. Well is it with him that hath turned thereunto, and apprehended the meaning of His decisive decree. ~ Bahá’u’lláh [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	May 05, 2009 3:44 PM May 5 The source of all learning is the knowledge of God, exalted be His Glory, and this cannot be attained save through the knowledge of His Divine Manifestation. ~ Bahá’u’lláh [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	May 02, 2009 2:25 PM COMFORT O God! Refresh and gladden my spirit. Purify my heart. Illumine my powers. I lay all my affairs in Thy hand. Thou art my Guide and my Refuge. I will no longer be sorrowful and grieved; I will be a happy and joyful being. O God! I will no longer be full of anxiety, nor will I let trouble harass me. I will not dwell on the unpleasant things of life. O God! Thou art more friend to me than I am to myself. I dedicate myself to Thee, O Lord. ‘Abdu’l-Baha [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	May 01, 2009 4:41 PM GUIDANCE God, guide me, protect me, make of me a shining lamp and a brilliant star. Thou art the mighty and the powerful.‘Abdu’l-Bahá O [ send green star]
Walelu M.	April 24, 2009 3:19 PM Pride not yourselves on much reading of the verses or on a multitude of pious acts by day and night. For were a man to read a single verse with joy and radiance it would be better for him than to read with lassitude all the Holy Books of God . . . Read ye the holy verses in such measure that ye be not overcome by languor and despondency. Lay not upon your souls that which will weary them and weigh them down, but rather what will lighten and uplift them. (Bahá'u'lláh [ send green star] [ accepted]
Runningfox M.	March 20, 2009 2:15 PM March 20 What ‘oppression’ is more grievous than that of a soul seeking the truth, and wishing to attain unto the knowledge of God, should know not where to go for it and from whom to seek it? ~ Bahá’u'lláh [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	March 01, 2009 5:41 PM March 1 The fear of God hath ever been the prime factor in the education of His creatures. Well is it with them that have attained thereunto! “Verily I say: The fear of God hath ever been a sure defense and a safe stronghold for all the peoples of the world. It is the chief cause of the protection of mankind, and the supreme instrument for its preservation.” ~ Bahá’u'lláh [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	February 24, 2009 10:02 AM February 24 Know thou, moreover, that the Word of God - exalted be His glory - is higher and far superior to that which the senses can perceive, for it is sanctified from any property or substance. It transcendeth the limitations of known elements and is exalted above all the essential and recognized substances. It became manifest without any syllable or sound and is none but the Command of God which pervadeth all created things. It hath never been withheld from the world of being. It is God’s all-pervasive grace, from which all grace doth emanate. It is an entity far removed above all that hath been and shall be. ~ Bahá’u'lláh This post was modified from its original form on 24 Feb, 10:03 [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 25, 2009 2:37 PM January 25 I knew not what amazement was Until I made Thy love my cause. O how amazing would it be If I were not amazed by Thee! ~ Bahá’u’lláh [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 15, 2009 4:01 PM January 15 God has not created men that they should destroy one another. All races, tribes, sects and classes share equally in the Bounty of their Heavenly Father. The only difference lies in the degree of faithfulness, of obedience to the laws of God. There are some who are as lighted torches, there are others who shine as stars in the sky of humanity. The lovers of mankind, these are the superior men, of whatever nation, creed or colour they may be. For it is they to whom God will say these blessed words, ‘Well done, My good and faithful servants.’ ~ Abdu’l-Bahá [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 14, 2009 6:35 PM January 13 O my God! O my God! We are servants who have sincerely turned our faces unto Thy grand face, severed ourselves from all else save Thee in this great day and are assembled together in this glorious meeting, of one accord and desire, and unanimous in thought to promulgate Thy Word amid Thy creatures. ~ ‘Abdu’l-Bahá [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 09, 2009 4:55 PM January 9 I have come from distant lands to visit the meetings and assemblies of this country. In every meeting I find people gathered loving each other; therefore I am greatly pleased. The bond of union is evidenced in this assembly today where the power of God has brought together in faith, agreement and concord those who [...] [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 08, 2009 3:08 PM January 8 Verily, I say unto thee, every soul which ariseth today to guide others to the path of safety and infuse in them the Spirit of Life, the Holy Spirit will inspire that soul with evidences, proofs and facts and the lights will shine upon it from the Kingdom of God. ~ Abdu’l-Baha [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 07, 2009 10:48 AM January 7 Should anyone arise for the triumph of our Cause, him will God render victorious though tens of thousands of enemies be leagued against him. And if his love for Me wax stronger, God will establish his ascendancy over all the powers of earth and heaven. Thus have We breathed the spirit of power into all [...] [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 06, 2009 4:22 PM January 6 He Who is the Dawning-place of God?s Cause hath no partner in the Most Great Infallibility. He it is Who, in the kingdom of creation, is the Manifestation of ?He doeth whatsoever He willeth?. God hath reserved this distinction unto His own Self, and ordained for none a share in so sublime and transcendent a [...] [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	January 05, 2009 1:57 PM January 5 Know thou that every created thing is a sign of the revelation of God. Each, according to its capacity, is, and will ever remain, a token of the Almighty. Inasmuch as He, the sovereign Lord of all, hath willed to reveal His sovereignty in the kingdom of names and attributes, each and every created thing [...] [ send green star]

Walelu M.	January 02, 2009 3:06 PM January 2 Be signs of guidance; lights of piety; severed from the world, holding fast to the firm rope; spreaders of the spirit of life; abiders in the ark of safety; manifestations of mercy; dawning-stars of the mysteries of existence; points of revelation; day-springs of light; strengthened by the Holy Spirit; attracted toward God; sanctified from all [...] [ send green star] [ accepted]
Runningfox M.	January 01, 2009 8:44 AM January 1 O Lord! Cause our souls to depend upon the signs of Thy Oneness, our hearts to be dilated with the bounties of Thy Singleness, so that we may become united as are ripples on a waving sea; become harmonized as are the rays which shine forth from a brilliant light; so that our thoughts, opinions [...] [ send green star]
Runningfox M.	Baha'i Words :Daily Prayers and Words of the Baha'i Faith December 31, 2008 8:22 PM December 31 I bear witness O my God, that Thou hast created me to know Thee and to worship Thee. I Testify at this moment to my powerlessness and to Thy might, to my Poverty and to Thy Wealth. There is none other God but Thee, the help in peril, the self-subsisting. ~ Bahaullah [ send green star]
