An evening of prayer

The Bahá'í community of Mechelen holds every other week a prayer evening on mondays. I am always counting down for these monday evenings because of the very sweet spirit that is felt when we are together. Bahá'í prayers are the most beautiful I ever heard/read, and when I read them in a spirit of prayer I always think about the early christian disciples when they wrote "and Jesus prayed with words that the human soul can not write". Well, thanks to Bahá'u'lláh I now understand how it is possible to pray words that the human pen cannot write, and the joy that we feel within when we gather to pray together.

In the Bible it is written that "by their fruits you shall know them". That is how I happilly and humbly discovered that Bahá'u'lláh was a messenger of God for our days.
