Friday Poem and Gratitude List

Istiqlál (Independence), 19 Qudrat (Power) 176 B.E. - Friday, November 22, 2019

Invocation: To Baha'u'llah1

O Glory of God!
I feel the Holy Spirit's power
flowing through Your words.
Awestruck
my soul falls prostrate begging
Your for forgiveness.

O Lord of Host!
When I read Your verses,
I hear trumpets echoing taps and reveille;
I see the old heaven rolled up,
the old earth passed away,
and the new spread out.
