1.Don’t jump to conclusions. Things aren’t always what they seem. Our conclusions may be logical but they may not be true. By refraining from making the wrong assumptions, we can avoid unnecessary pain & conflict. So don’t be too quick to judge & condemn. Instead, be discerning!

2.The Almighty doesn’t care about your looks; what you do; who you know. He looks at your heart. Also you’re not defined by your past. It’s just the opposite with the world. People will look at all of the above & more. Get your priorities right. Who matters more? It’s your choice!

3.Beware what you think. Get rid of negative thoughts, assumptions, what ifs etc. They serve no purpose. If you keep replaying them, you’ll end up the loser. That’s what Satan wants. Most of the scenarios in your mind, won’t happen! Clear out the cobwebs & start seeing light!

4.The Almighty looks at your heart. Your connections, achievements, accolades etc don’t matter. He’s watching if you act out of kindness, love & compassion. Or is it all about you. Society has become rather selfish. If your heart’s in the right place!, you’re on the right track!

5.Beware the company you keep. Not all are supporters. Not all will cheer you on or want to see you succeed. In fact, some are happy when you fall and fail. Such is life. These are people who are jealous of your blessings. They want what the Almighty has given you. Pray for them!

6.When things go wrong as they often do, learn to look for answers from within. The trouble is many will lash out at others and blame people around them. It’s easier to focus outward and get reactive. That’s unwise. Moreover, that seldom solves the problem and often makes it worse!

7.Cut down on social media interactions. If you belong to numerous chat groups and other online platforms, put them all on the back burner. Do it now and don’t procrastinate. They have a way of making you fritter your time away. Focus on your acts of worship. Life’s too short.

8.Remind yourself that everything is temporary; nothing lasts. You’re on a journey. You’ve not reached your final destination yet. An eternal abode awaits. The Hereafter. So quit stressing over everything that happens. Let the Almighty take over after you’ve done your best!

9.No matter what you’re going through, the Almighty can bring the greatest blessings even with the worst of circumstances. You’ve got to believe that nothing is impossible with the Lord of the Worlds. Seek Him constantly and He will direct your steps. Ask Him to strengthen you!

10.Don’t keep things bottled up. It’s not healthy to hold your anxiety in. It can only get worse. Learn to open up, speak up and get help if you need to. There’s nothing wrong with that. We all need love and support. Seek your strength from the Almighty. He will pave a way out!

11.Almighty. Help us understand every step of our journey in this life. Let us bear good patience as we wait for our prayers to be answered and Your blessings to be revealed. Help us to always trust that Your timing is perfect and that You always work in our best interest! Aameen!
