1.Trust the Almighty with full conviction; with all your heart. Don’t lean on your own understanding. Often with our limited knowledge, we’re not able to see the whole picture. But He knows what we don’t. Acknowledge Him in all that you’re going through & He will direct your way.

2.Almighty. We have many things we’re worried about bombarding our brains. We know You’re in full control of everything and we’re not. We hand them over to You because of Your infinite Wisdom and Mercy. Grant us peace of mind, knowing that You always want the best for us. Aameen.

3.Almighty. Grant us guidance.

Show us which way to turn. Calm our anxious thoughts. Strengthen us as we often falter and feel weary. Give us strength in our hearts and clarity of vision to go through our daily affairs. We know that You’re with us in our journey. Aameen.

4.It’s time to inhale the future and exhale the past. It’s easy to look back and ask all the “whys” and “ifs” but honestly, it’s not going to change anything. Instead, gather the lessons the Almighty wanted you to learn along the way and move ahead with full trust in your heart!

5.There are people who will go out of their way for others. They’ll be there when times are rough, always ready with a listening ear. Don’t forget to check on them too. They may be facing struggles known only to them. Their cup may be empty having poured everything out for others!

6.Practice, patience & perseverance. These are essential ingredients if you want to excel in whatever you’re doing, Nothing comes easy. The Almighty has equipped you with the faculties & capabilities. Put them to good use. Sitting around, waiting for things to happen won’t work!

7.Don’t be discouraged when you see others doing well. Don’t begrudge your friend for getting that job you’ve been eyeing for a while. You are almost there. What the Almighty is giving you requires patience, focus and commitment! Your time will come when He makes it happen!

8.Focus on what matters. Choose positivity always. Negativity is not the vibe you want. If you allow it, negativity can sap your energy & leave you feeling drained. It can kill your inner peace. Recognize these symptoms & learn to make better choices. Leave the outside noise out!

9.Nothing lasts. Even some of the people the Almighty sends our way are only meant to accompany us temporarily. Don’t be upset when He moves people out of your life. It’s His Plan. You need to carry on your journey. You’ll meet more along the way. He’s keeping an eye on you!

10.Don’t allow the hectic pace of your life to keep you away from praying. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by life’s responsibilities. Don’t. Take it in your stride. Don’t trade the connection with your Creator for worldly things. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to be heard by Him!
