ot free; silent, not eloquent; slow, not fast. They have
sluggish movement and great intention. These tow do not agree (or unite).

Many a good intention was there in the world of existence which left no
trace, for it was not confirmed by the effective power. But the good
intentions of the beloved of God and the merciful projects of the real
friends are enforced by the power of the Word of God; therefore, it is
effective and quick in action and the means of life to the world of
humanity. Thank thou God that He hath provided such a means for thee that
by divine aid, heavenly confirmation, merciful intention and heavenly
power thou mayest arise to serve, so that thou mayest see wonderful signs
and marvelous results.

The good news of the unity and concord of the friends of New York proved a
great source of Joy. The original intention and the divine foundation is
the unification of the world of humanity. Therefore, this merciful reality
must first find realization among the friends (Bahais), so that it may
affect other souls.

Today the world and the people are under the shadow of divine providence,
the light of the Sun of Reality hath been shed upon the world of minds and
thoughts; hence, light is seen everywhere.
