TRUSTWORTHINESS

10
We beseech Him—exalted be He—to aid every one to become the essence of
truthfulness, and to draw nigh unto Him.

Bahá’u’lláh, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf

11
The virtues and attributes pertaining unto God are all evident and manifest, and

have been mentioned and described in all the heavenly Books. Among them are
trustworthiness, truthfulness, purity of heart while communing with God,
forbearance, resignation to whatever the Almighty hath decreed, contentment

with the things His Will hath provided, patience, nay, thankfulness in the midst
of tribulation, and complete reliance, in all circumstances, upon Him. These
rank, according to the estimate of God, among the highest and most laudable of
all acts.

Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh

12

Trustworthiness is the greatest portal leading unto the tranquility and security
of the people. In truth the stability of every affair hath depended and doth
depend upon it. All the domains of power, of grandeur and of wealth are
illumined by its light.

Bahá’u’lláh, Tarázát
