Youth – Blessings; Spiritual growth; “may be freed from error”; Service; “may guide the wayward”; “awaken the heedless”

O Lord! Make this youth radiant and confer Thy bounty upon this poor creature. Bestow upon him knowledge, grant him added strength at the break of every morn and guard him within the shelter of Thy protection so that he may be freed from error, may devote himself to the service of Thy Cause, may guide the wayward, lead the hapless, free the captives and awaken the heedless, that all may be blessed with Thy remembrance and praise. Thou art the Mighty and the Powerful. 

- ‘Abdu’l-Baha  (From a Tablet; The Compilation of Compilations, vol. II, Youth)
