On Self-Care: Unaffected by Setbacks and Perils
"Indeed if an avowed follower of Baha'u'llah were to immerse himself in, and fathom the depths of, the ocean of these heavenly teachings, and with utmost care and attention deduce from each of them the subtle mysteries and consummate wisdom that lie enshrined therein, such a person's life, materially, intellectually and spiritually, will be safe from toil and trouble, and unaffected by setbacks and perils, or any sadness or despondency"
Shoghi Effendi, cited in "The Importance of Deepening Our Knowledge and Understanding of the Faith"

The believer in any Faith will have tests and setbacks in life. He will just have an easier time "rolling with it", and he will also come to appreciate the struggle.
