1.Do you determine your worth by the size of your bank balance? Nothing material will bring you what you’re looking for. If you want a life of abundance, start with gratitude. Always be thankful. Find it in your heart to be happy for others. You’ll attract a lot more blessings! ‬

2.Almighty. Calm our troubled hearts and let peace and tranquility reign once again. There’s so much noise and confusion around us that it’s easy to be distracted and lose focus. Many useless things demand our attention. Guide us. Keep us firm in faith; always close to You! Aameen!‬

3.Do your best to always use the best words when speaking to others & not to resort to insults, name-calling & harshness. This is even more important in the age of the internet! Today, many don’t give a second thought to what they say & write! Remember you’ll be held accountable!‬

4.Don’t let sadness consume you. What is this life but a mixture of sad & happy moments. Nothing lasts. That’s how it is. No matter what the Almighty places in your path, keep putting one foot in front of the other, even when it hurts. Trust that He only wants what’s good for you! ‬

5.Trials are a gift from the Almighty. The hardship you’re experiencing might just be what earns His Pleasure. It might just be your ticket to Paradise. He’s watching to see if it softens your hardened heart; if it makes you admit He is the source of everything. He is in control.

6.The truth is we’re being favoured daily. The Almighty bestows His many blessings on us in various forms but often we don’t see them. The closed doors He’s protecting us from, opening new doors & opportunities, the new people He brings forth or removes from our lives. Thank Him!

7.Don’t beat yourself over something that happened in the past. Repent, seek forgiveness, move on. We all sin; we all make mistakes. But the best are those who learn from their shortcomings, focus on becoming a better version of themselves, leaving no time for futile activities!‬

8.When the Almighty takes something away from you, do you wallow in self-pity, thinking negative thoughts or do you have firm belief that He will replace it with something better? If you understood His Plan, you’ll be ever hopeful what’s to come will be better than what’s gone! ‬

9.How do we react when we’re really upset; when it feels like our world has exploded? Acknowledge the feeling but don’t let it get out of control. Ignoring your feelings won’t make them go away, it just prolongs the healing process. Confide in the Almighty who controls everything!

10. ‬Be mindful of the people you allow into your inner circle. Make sure you’re familiar with every one of them. Make sure the people in your boat are rowing in the same direction as you are. Remember, it’s better to be alone than to be with those who’ll jeopardise your Hereafter!‬
