1.Don’t behave as you please in front of your children. Words that come out of your mouth should never be swear words. They’ll pick it up in a heartbeat. Control the tongue & your manners too. They’re more likely to follow your example than your advice. Show them the best way!

2.When your heart is broken, you think you’ve reached the end of the road and you feel empty; be careful what you fill it with! Satan is an opportunist. He will cause doubt & unleash evil thoughts; strive to block him out. Turn to the Almighty. Seek His help. Only He can heal you! ‬

3.Be mindful of your reaction to those who’ve wronged you. Two wrongs do not make a right. You can’t be mean, angry or bitter & expect goodness in return. Don’t become obsessed with revenge. Let the Almighty handle it. Be the better, kinder person always. Rise above it all. ‬

4.Don’t complicate your life. If you want something done, do it yourself if you can. If you want to change a bad habit, go for it. Don’t just talk about it. If something distresses you, get to the bottom of it. Above all, always keep the Almighty on your radar. You’ll get there!‬

5.We’re becoming more preoccupied with the worldly stuff that we forget death is inevitable. It can come anytime; yet we always think we have time on our side. Don’t be foolish. May we realize this sooner rather than later and not be among those filled with regret in our graves!

6.Do you go through life thinking you have so many problems to solve? Every little thing is an issue? You’re always complaining. You get irritated easily. Focusing on what isn’t going right is a sure way to attract more negativity. Count your blessings! Think positive thoughts! ‬

7.Sometimes the Almighty closes doors because it’s time to move on. The trouble is we may not see this. We keep knocking but nothing happens. He knows what He’s doing. He also knows that we won’t move unlesss He creates some discomfort for us! Change is not easy! Trust Him. ‬

8.In real life, no one has it all together. Don’t believe anyone who says he does. Sometimes life gets so overwhelming but our faith carries us through. Giving up is not an option. Every single one of us is fighting an unseen battle, often hidden by a brave exterior. Be empathetic!‬

9.Don’t live life thinking about the past. Learn from your mistakes and live to realize the full potential that the Almighty has blessed you with. The journey is important but the end is even more crucial. Pray for guidance and strength always. May He grant us the best outcome!‬

10.Don’t compare your marriage to what you see online. There will always be people who post pictures making it look like they’re having a better time than you and your spouse! Avoid the temptation to make a comparison. Envy is dangerous. Disastrous even; so stay offline if you must!

11.We may get too dependent on people in our lives till we forget that the Almighty’s the only One in complete control of our existence. So He removes people from our lives for our own protection. Not everyone will like you. Not everyone wants good for you! Depend on Him alone!‬

12.It’s sad how some people are so jealous & intimidated by you that they only have negative things to say when they know absolutely nothing about you. It’s common practice today; in fact it’s the norm. May the Almighty protect our tongues from saying things that harm others! ‬

13.Don’t let worry control you. That’s what Satan wants. He wants you to worry and live in doubt. Don’t let stress consume you too. Take things in your stride. Think positive. Always look for solutions. Take a deep breath and know that the Almighty has it all worked out for you.

14.People love labels. They’ll use it loosely and indiscriminately on anyone and everyone. Don’t pay heed to any of that. How you think and feel about yourself is determined by you. Don’t listen to the noise around you. Cut it out. Focus on your tasks ahead. A lot needs to be done.‬

15.Almighty. Give us the strength & courage to stay firm & hold on to our faith & belief. Don’t make us among those who are people pleasers, losing ourselves in a crowd just because we want to fit in. Help us to worry less about what others think of us. Only You matter in the end! ‬
