Healing Scriptures

Healing Scriptures

I read the healing scriptures revealed
by The Bab,
Baha'u'llah,
and 'Abdu'-Baha.

I raise my plea for divine assistance
to understand the exalted words
of the sacred writings,
and comprehend the analogies
they contain.

I read the healing scriptures,
and raise my plea for assistance
to apply their prescriptions
to healing of spiritual wounds.
