Praise be to God, Who hath enabled us to recognize His own
Self, bestowed upon us the knowledge of His Cause, set forth before us the path
of truth and certitude, and revealed unto all created things that which
beseemeth His unfailing grace. We render thanks unto Him under all
conditions—such thanks as He Himself hath uttered in His Book and hath taught
us as a token of His bountiful favour and sovereign might. Salutation and glory
rest upon them that have stood fast in His Cause, spoken forth His praise, been
privileged to hearken to His Call, set their faces towards the horizon of His
grace, and drawn nigh unto the ocean of His mighty Name. - Baha’u’llah (‘Additional Tablets and Extracts from Tablets Revealed by Bahá’u’lláh’; Baha’i
