continuing the Hidden Words of Baha’u’llah

Imageno.49

O SON OF MAN!   The true lover yearneth for tribulation even as doth the rebel for forgiveness and the sinful  for mercy.

 

no.50

O SON OF MAN!   If adversity befall thee not in My path, how canst thou walk in the ways of them that are  content with My pleasure?  If trials afflict thee not  in thy longing to meet Me, how wilt thou attain  the light in thy love for My beauty?

 

no.51

O SON OF MAN!   My calamity is My providence, outwardly it is fire and vengeance, but inwardly it is light and  mercy.  Hasten thereunto that thou mayest  become an eternal light and an immortal spirit.  This is My command unto thee, do thou observe  it.

 

no.52

O SON OF MAN!   Should prosperity befall thee, rejoice not, and should abasement come upon thee, grieve not,  for both shall pass away and be no more.
