BAHA'U'LLAH, I Love The Blues of YouCan I express what I am feeling tonight?
Whenever I intone Your holy verses, O Lord,
It's as if I enter a world of wonder;
I am softly nestled in the Arms of the Universe.

Contentment
Mixed sadness, somber
Words fail to enrobe this feeling
Tears come abunduntly
Hide myself for no eyes to see
A sweet, tender moment.
Baha'u'llah, I love the Blues of You.



I know there is death and injustice out there,
suffering and loss.
But, you see, I am pleased and content with my plea.
I have troubles of my own,

little money and many many more.

Why am I lifted to this plane

With only my intonation

And communion with You, Lord,

Forgetful of the world around me?
Baha'u'llah, I Love the Blues of You!

It is in seeing the end in the beginning,
The knowing of a coming dawn,

That will break the errors of men
And replace them with joy.



The world is dark, filled with war and hatred,
anger, aggression and despair.
Yet the light of an Assured Future is there,
Plain to see for the open eye.
I've got the blues, O my Lord!

You wish me only joy and happiness
And let no harm beset me in times of tests.
These promises of Yours I know,
Many, many a time appeared true
And in my heart revealed.

But, for now, I'm trapped within my humanness.
Baha'u'llah, I've got the Blues of You!



See these broken wings, O Royal Falcon!

Refresh my drooping soul
So that I may wing my flight high.
Alas, I am deep in the abyss of humanness.
Baha'u'llah, I've got the Blues of You!

Hold Thou my right arm, O Lord,
And dwell continually with me.
As I lift my feet in Thy path

My soul is refreshed
And a new spirit reborn.
As Your name is mentioned
I AM FREE!

O BAHA'U'LLAH, I love these Blues of You!

I pray, forget not this insane lover, O My Lord

We are trying to remove the annoying "gift" feature placed on our site by NING. Kamelia is looking into it.

Thanks for your comment.

Dearly loved friends,
2009 has already proven to be a very special year. This year the Baha'i world was blessed with forty-one conferences around the globe called by the Universal House of Justice. Additionally, the Baha'is, utilizing their powers of individual initiative, are now, more than ever, set to serve their Lord in many a systematic way which the world has never witnessed before.

"Communities everywhere are gradually internalizing the lessons being learned from systematization, and the framework defined by the current series of Plans lends consistency and flexibility to the endeavors of the friends. Far from restricting them, this framework enables them to seize opportunities, to build relationships, and to translate into reality a vision of systematic growth. In a word, it gives shape to their collective powers."Ridvan 2008 Message

The beloved of God are busy building His Kingdom on earth. The number of new adherents in the Cause of Baha'u'llah has greatly multiplied, the Local Assemblies have come long ways in recognizing the need to be more outward looking and thus recognizing their divinely appointed purpose -teaching the Faith of our Lord to the waiting masses. It is indeed heartening to witness the ever-increasing strength of love and harmony among the Baha'is, inspiringly dedicated to the will of the Head of our Faith and deeply and enthusiastically involved in the Institute Process. A process, we have been assured, will steer all humankind to come under the Banners of Light, in troops. World Religion Day observances, in our view, must be perceived and used as a tool to serve the global Institute Process.

We, one and all, must be very grateful to the Supreme House of Justice for its unerring guidance to a fallible humanity. The only way we can express our gratitude is to do exactly what the House has counseled us to do. Namely, "yet rising up undeterred and undismayed as a united whole and strengthening its capacity to achieve Baha'u'llah's purpose to liberate humankind from the yoke of the most grievous oppression"(Ridvan 2009): i.e., the oppression of religious prejudices and misunderstandings that our Program was designed to eliminate.

We urge all Baha'is to rally in unity around their august Institutions and host an event to mark the 2010 World Religion Day on Sunday January 17th in each cluster. We, echoing the words of the Supreme House of Justice, propose "A Time of Bright Prospects"* as the theme for the 2010 observances.

The purpose of World Religion Day is to promote understanding and dialogue between the followers of all religions, to call attention to the common foundation of their spiritual principles, and to emphasize that "Religion must be the cause of unity." The attendees at World Religion Day global observances in 2010 will benefit by knowing that God's promised kingdom is at hand, and thus all humanity must, without any further hesitation, unite as members of one family.

Please send us an email at admin@worldreligionday.org with your community's plans for the upcoming observance, including the name of your cluster, state/province and country. Send us a brief description of your program, as well as host/contact information. Your information will be added to our website. Your ideas may inspire and encourage others.

We are with you in prayer.

With loving greetings,
WORLD RELIGION DAY PROGRAM
