The Pen Of The Most High Hath Decreed

Sources: Gleanings From The Writings Of Baha'u'llah

The Pen of the Most High hath decreed and imposed upon every one the

obligation to teach this Cause.... God will, no doubt, inspire whosoever

detacheth himself from all else but Him, and will cause the pure waters of

wisdom and utterance to gush out and flow copiously from his heart.

Verily, thy Lord, the All-Merciful, is powerful to do as He willeth, and

ordaineth whatsoever He pleaseth.



Wert thou to con
ider this world, and realize how fleeting are the things

that pertain unto it, thou wouldst choose to tread no path except the path

of service to the Cause of thy Lord. None would have the power to deter

thee from celebrating His praise, though all men should arise to oppose

thee.



Go thou straight on and persevere in His service. Say: O people! The Day,

promised unto you in all the Scriptures, is now come. Fear ye God, and

withhold not yourselves from recognizing the One Who is the Object of your

creation. Hasten ye unto Him. Better is this for you than the world and

all that is therein. Would that ye could perceive it!
