Banners of Unit and Gratitude List

Fiḍál (Grace), 17 Raḥmat (Mercy) 175 B.E. - Tuesday, July 10, 2018

"Now is the time for the lovers of God to raise high the banners of unity, to intone, in the assemblages of the world, the verses of friendship and love and to demonstrate to all that the grace of God is one."

‘Abdu’l‑Bahá

Banners of Unity1

The banners of unity unfurl
proclaiming the oneness of God,
the common foundation of religion,
and the oneness of humanity.

Gratitude List for 17 Rahmat

Today I am thankful...
          ...that the update to Windows 10 was completed before 8:00 p.m. Pacific Time, because it allowed me to post the "Blogging Circle of Friends "  prompt last night.
          ...for Facebook because I can always find an inspiring scripture, which was posted on one of the Baha'i groups I participate in.
          ...that I have a working internet connection, because it lets me access the blog "Baha'i Stories"2. This blog contains information about the history of the Baha'i Faith that I can read for education and inspiration.
          ...that I have 881 Talk Minutes and 498 MBs left on my data plan for this month.
          ...that I was able to add some poems to "Poem Experiments"  and "Devotional Poetry" .
