Good Advice

Good Advice

'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did'

When God takes something from your grasp; He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.

Concentrate on this sentence..... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.' Something good will happen.


Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what may happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice.


1. Pray

2. Go to bed on time.

3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.

4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule or that will compromise your mental health.

5. Delegate tasks to capable others.

6. Simplify and de-clutter your life.

7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)

8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places

10. Take one day at a time.

11. Separate worries from concerns If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety. If you can't do anything about a situation, forget it.
