"The gift of God to this enlightened age is the knowledge of the oneness of mankind and of the fundamental oneness of religion. War shall cease between nations, and by the will of God the Most Great Peace shall come; the world will be seen as a new world, and all men will live as brothers."
Abdu'l-Baha1

"O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord."
Bahá’u’lláh2

DAY 2231: August is almost over and September is almost upon us, what are your plans? Are you participating in this years 20th anniversary celebration here on WDC? Or are you working on something special in your life? New goals?

What are my plans for September? I plan to celebrate WDC's 20th anniversary by participating in the contests. I don't know how many of the contests I'll enter, I will attempt to enter more than I have been. I have other things I want to finish before the end of 2020, which I will focus on after September is over. Right now, I just want to enjoy WDC's birthday celebration and get out of the yo-yo depression I'm experiencing at to moment. I'm slowly getting my focus back. I hope to have it back completely by the end of the month.


Meditation on the Long Healing Prayer

"He is the Healer, the Sufficer, the Helper, the All-Forgiving, the All-Merciful."3

I meditate the Names of God,
that Baha'u'llah inscribed in the verses
of the Long Healing prayer.

Since this is the beginning of a new week (for me), I decided to do something a little different. I listened to an hour's presentation about the relationship of the Long Healing prayer--revealed by Baha'u'llah--and the metaphysics of unity. That helped me to refocus my attention and inspired the above poem. Therefore, when I feel my focus going, I will listen to one of the prayers that I can access on YouTube or read one or more from my prayer book or the app on my phone.
