"...May the American people and their government unite in their efforts in order that this light may dawn from this point and spread to all regions, for this is one of the greatest bestowals of God. In order that America may avail herself of this opportunity, I beg that you strive and pray with heart and soul, devoting all your energies to this end: that the banner of international peace may be upraised here and that this democracy may be the cause of the cessation of warfare in all other countries."
~ Abdu'l-Baha, The Promulgation of Universal Peace (1912)

As I listened to Obama speak last night, I kept thinking about the Prayer for America. I feel like we've been given a huge opportunity as a nation here; I just hope that enough people are ready to embrace the changes needed to make it work.
