On an Ex-Submariner Beats a Drum: If any one oppose you, say, "Ya Baha'u'l-Abha!"
Chuck had a career as a submariner, before starting an equally long career in the merchant marines as an engineer. He is a Baha'i and not afraid to make a drum and beat it. "Ya Baha'u'l-Abha!" was the song he led to end the first day of Kitsap County's 4th Intensive Program of Growth. -gw
Advance always in the Kingdom of Bahá'u'lláh; occupy thy heart always by
the mentioning of Bahá'u'lláh; take heed that only in your eyes is Bahá'u'lláh,
in your heart is Bahá'u'lláh -- in your inmost heart is Bahá'u'lláh! If you
fall into trouble, say, "Ya Baha ul Abha!" If any one oppose you, say, "Ya Baha
ul Abha!" Even while at your work, mention "Ya Baha ul Abha!" Thou wilt be
blamed for My sake; people will attribute to thee infidelity for My sake; thou
wilt bear trouble for My sake. Be encouraged, and do not fear. It happened like
this also in the time of Jesus Christ.Know the greatness of these days!
