O thou beloved maid-servant of God! Didst thou know what station is destined and appointed, under the protection of His Highness BAHA'O'LLAH, for those souls who are severed, attracted and teachers of truth, undoubtedly thou shouldst find the utmost joy and happiness, and, by reason of exultation and rejoicing, soar toward the heaven of peace, inasmuch as thou art walking in this road and advancing toward such a Kingdom. (627:1) Regarding the statement that I have written to thee, about dedicating thyself to the service of the Cause of God, it means this: Center thy thoughts in the teachings of the Cause, day and night, and act according to the teachings and behests of His Highness BAHA'O'LLAH. This is not contrary to marriage. It is possible for thee to be married and be engaged in the service of the Cause of God. The first does not interfere with the latter. (627:2) Briefly, avail thyself of the opportunity and do not let it slip from thy grasp; i. e., supplicate God that in this darkened world thou mayest become an ignited candle and the cause of the guidance of many souls.
(627:3)
