Swift as the twinkling of an eye ye can, if ye but wish it, reach and partake of this imperishable favor, this God-given grace, this incorruptible gift, this most potent and unspeakably glorious bounty.

Quote of the Day
Jalal 2 Ilm 183 B.E.

‘Abdu’l-Bahá – The Promulgation of Universal Peace, p. 81
