When in Bahá'í history
Another time we were told that we could have an interview with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá and mother went with me when I had one. I asked Him, "What can I do to serve this Faith?" The Master paced up and down the room... "Study. Study. Study." So many times the Master would repeat things three times. That was the message for me. Always the Master knew the thing that would bring fullest development into the individual's life. If it was requested, He guided the person to it.'
