‘Abdu’l-Baha is “ever watching from his Station on High … guiding and strengthening his faithful lovers"
Though your number in each of these cities be small and limited, yet by virtue of that Celestial Potency bequeathed to every one of you by our departed Master, you are assured that ere long your small company shall expand and wield such power and influence as no earthly power can ever hope for or attain. Who can doubt that he is ever watching from his Station on High over his scattered fold and is guiding and strengthening his faithful lovers who toil and labour for the fulfillment of his Word and the realization of his Purpose for mankind? (Excerpt from a letter written by Shoghi Effendi to the Baha’is in a number of cities in north America, dated January 8, 1923; Star of the West, vol. 14, April 1923) (To see the entire letter please visit Messages to the Baha’i World)
