Baha'u'llah & the New Era 2006 by -J. Esslemont- 1 Para

.. Prayer need not be in words, but rather in thought and action. But if this love and this desire are lacking, it is useless to try to force them. Words without love mean nothing. If a person talks to you as an unpleasant duty, finding neither love nor enjoyment in the meeting, do you wish to converse with him? (Article in Fortnightly Review, Jan. - June 1911, by Miss E. S. Stevens.) (64:3)
