 life lesson by mufti menk-67 1. Don’t worry about people liking you. You should know by now that they’re a hard lot to please. Nothing is good enough for them. So don’t stress over this. You liking yourself is what matters. That’s your milestone. People liking you is a bonus. Get your priorities right. 2. Be mindful when you speak. Choose your words carefully. Good or bad, words are little seeds that can make a big difference in the present & the future. Use your words to bring life to those around you. Don’t use your words to stab people & leave indelible marks in their hearts. 3. There’ll be times when the Almighty puts you in situations completely out of your control just to remind you who’s in charge. Recognize it. Don’t question Him. He knows what He’s doing. Cultivate a good attitude and have full faith in Him to get you through it. 4. You will fall. You will make mistakes. But that doesn’t make you worth any less. Get up again. Times are difficult. Many are sick. Others

 life lesson by mufti menk-66 1. Don’t try to live up to other people's expectations. Don’t go through life making decisions based on other people’s desires. Remember, they don’t have to live with the results of those choices. You do! Take control of your life. Do your best and make the Almighty your priority! 2. It might not be obvious to you now, but greater things are being planned for you. You're always given the test before the reward. You're always given the struggle before the strength. Hardships always come before the ease. Keep trusting the Almighty. The blessings will follow. 3. We’ve all made wrong choices in the past. Don’t let regret overwhelm you. Get back on track. Seek the Almighty’s help and believe that He wants the best for you. Believe that He will redeem the past and restore your present. Leave the worst behind and move forward in faith! 4. The Almighty forgives but people don't always forgive. Don't allow the harsh words or judgment of man to c

  life lesson by mufti menk-65 1. Keep some things private between you & the Almighty. There are some things you need only to confide in Him alone! Remember, not everyone needs to know what you’re doing, what’s going on in your life etc. The less people know about you, the better. Privacy is a prized possession! 2. This disease is so rampant. Many suffer from it. Stop comparing yourself to others. Break the habit of feeling insecure, envious & discontented with your life. One of the main reasons is social media! Remember, wanting what others have is a waste of time; live your own life! 3. Your mind can be your best friend or worst enemy. Train it well. If you don’t, it will assume it’s your master & it shall do as it pleases, it will spiral into negativity, depression & it becomes a force that drags you down instead of helping you. Always steer it to positivity! 4. Life’s a process. You can’t have a haphazard journey and expect to emerge top. Though you may not like wh

  life lessons by mufti menk-64 1. Strive to make others happy, do it selflessly & the Almighty will make sure you’re kept happy. Remember happiness begets happiness. Be concerned with beautifying your character rather than your physical being. Physical beauty will wither away but good character will last! 2. The sad truth about hardship & calamities is that they reveal your true friends & real enemies. Who will help you? Who will distance themselves from you? Who will be there to just offer some kind words? You could probably count them on the fingers of one hand! That’s a fact! 3. Almighty. Grant ease to those facing any form of hardship. You know their needs better than anyone else. You know their pain, anxieties, worries & fears. We pray for a breakthrough for them. Bless & heal them from all their hurt. Refill them with strength & restore their hope! 4. No matter what the circumstances, don’t hurt others. Don’t be mean. You never know what the next person i

  life lessons by mufti menk-63 1. Almighty. Forgive us for trying to fix things on our own. Forgive us for running around seeking help when we should be turning to You. Forgive us for forgetting how much we need You above everyone & everything else. You know our pain, burden & cares. Heal us. Make us whole again! 2. Let’s be honest about it. From time to time, we all do foolish things. We make mistakes. As long as we acknowledge our shortcomings and seek forgiveness, nothing we do is beyond the capacity of the Almighty to forgive. Remember, we make mistakes. He doesn’t! He’s perfect! 3. Do you sometimes feel like the weight of the world is too much on your shoulders? Don’t fret. You’re never alone. Don’t think you’re helpless & there’s no way out. Seek your strength from the Almighty. Feel your load lighten. Know that He will grant you the best outcome! 4. You may have sins the size of a mountain but once you sincerely repent, the Almighty wipes them all out because He lo

 life lessons by mufti menk-62 1. There’s a teaching moment in every trial that the Almighty sends your way. Each pain makes you stronger; every betrayal makes you wiser, every failure makes you more resilient. He will keep testing us till we learn the intended lesson. Keep learning! Life always has a lesson! 2. When you’re close to the Almighty, you’ll be extremely grounded. Nothing worldly will shake or affect you that you lose your sense of self. You’ll have inner peace. You won’t be easily provoked. You’re better able to control your anger. You’re calm in the face of adversity! 3. Wait patiently. It’s never a punishment. It could be a protection. And it’s certainly a preparation for when the door finally opens. It’s all to do with timing. The Lord of the Worlds knows when it’s best to give you what you’ve been asking for day and night! 4. At times, the Almighty will slow you down just to protect you. A delay doesn’t mean denial. There’s evil ahead of you which you can’t see but He

  life lesson by mufti menk-61 1. Jealousy is evil. Don’t let it take root in your heart. It can multiply like cancer cells, jeopardizing your future blessings! The longer you leave it in your heart, the more it spreads & damages you from the inside out. Quit being jealous. Encourage & uplift one another instead! 2. Always remember that we are nothing without the Almighty. But with Him, we can expect great things. He has blessed us with so much. Never forget to count your blessings and be grateful. Gratitude is key. Gratitude brings contentment. Gratitude makes what we have, enough! 3. Stop telling people more than they need to know. It only provides them with fodder for more gossip. Oversharing is not healthy. It can lead to unnecessary complications in life especially if you shared with the wrong people! 4. Let’s face it. We all tend to worry about the future from time to time. That’s ok. We’re human. But try not to exhaust yourself on something that hasn’t even happened. Don
