I will use no excuses to avoid my responsibility to God, to myself, and to humankind: (5:18) I am involved in all mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. John Donne (5:19) I will set aside a little time every day to pray to God and to ask Him to guide me by the light of His knowledge (5:20) O God! Refresh and gladden my spirit. Purify my heart. Illumine my powers. I lay all my affairs in Thy hand. Thou art my Guide and my Refuge.. (5:21) O God! Thou art more friend to me than I am to myself. I dedicate myself to Thee, O Lord. (24 'Abdu'l-Baha- ) (5:22) Is there any Remover of difficulties save God? Say: Praised be God! He is God! All are His servants, and all abide by His bidding! (25 The Bab- ) (5:23) Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long (5:24) You are God my stronghold. Why have you rejected me? Why must I go about mourning...? Send forth your light and your truth, let them guide me; let them bring me to your holy mountain, to the place where you dwell. (Psalms 25:4-5; 43:2-3) (5:25) References: |
