Instead, be thankful to the Almighty through humility, charity and prayer. 4. It should never be lip service when you call out to the Almighty. Call out sincerely; with confidence and firm conviction that your call will be answered. Above all, be patient and trust Him. 5. There’s no need to show off how pious you are. Keep your relationship with your Maker private.
