The Baha’i Fast – Day 1

We asked our photographers to participate in a project for the Baha’i Fast – a bit of a throwback to our roots in the inspiration derived from Nineteen Days, and an opportunity to provide our audience with some beauty and spiritual rejuvenation. One photo with a quotation (and in some cases, a personal reflection) will be posted each day of the Fast. Here is our first photo!

“Grant, O my Lord, that this fast may become a river of life-giving waters and may yield the virtue wherewith Thou hast endowed it. …These are the servants who, as soon as Thy call reached them, hastened in the direction of Thy mercy and were not kept back from Thee by the changes and chances of this world or by any human limitations.”
-Prayers and Meditations by Bahá’u’lláh
