The letter arrived at a time when-- praise be to God!-- calamities and sufferings in the path of God have surrounded us from every direction and arrows and darts are flying from every bow. But, through the love of His Holiness BAHA'O'LLAH, we, in this intense darkness, are like unto a shining torch, and while in this tempest of calamities, we are turning toward the Kingdom of the Almighty and engaged in remembering thee. We do not consider this calamity as billows of the sea of afflictions and sufferings; nay, it is the ark of deliverance and the shore of peace and security.
(723:4)
