God - First
. . . it does not mean we must not love, but we must reach a spiritual plane where God comes first and great human passions are unable to turn us away from Him. All the time we see people who either through the force of hate or the passionate attachment they have to another person, sacrifice principle or bar themselves from the path of God.
- Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 512
Quote of the Day
Kamal 2 Mashiyyat 183 B.E.
The believers should learn to turn more often to their Assemblies for advice and help and at an earlier date, and the Assemblies, on the other hand, should act with more vigilance and a greater sense of community responsibility towards every situation.
Shoghi Effendi – Lights of Guidance, p. 80
