Al-salaamu `alaykum wa rahmatullaah wa barakaatuh (May Allaah’s Peace, Mercy, and Blessings be upon you!)
All praise is due to Allaah. We seek His Help and Forgiveness. We also seek refuge with Him from the evils in ourselves and from our misdeeds. Whomsoever Allaah guides, none can misguide and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray, none can guide. I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allaah and that Muhammad is His Servant and Messenger.
To proceed:
Exhortation to Taqwah:
O people, I exhort you to have Taqwah and to fear Allah (Exalted be He) as He should be feared by obeying His Commands and avoiding His Prohibitions, to be truly those people who fear Allaah.
Eeman is a great blessing that Allaah confers on His Believing Servants:
O Muslims, Allaah (Exalted be He) grants the believer, whose heart is enlightened with Eeman (Faith/belief) and whose chest is expanded to accept Islaam, a source of light to discriminate truth from falsehood, guidance from misguidance, and to see how great Allaah’s Blessing on him is. This blessing entails extending thanks to Allaah, because thanking Allaah (Exalted be He) yields continuous and everlasting blessing. 
And (remember) when your Lord proclaimed: “If you give thanks (by accepting Faith and worshipping none but Allaah), I will give you more (of My Blessings); but if you are thankless (i.e. disbelievers), verily My punishment is indeed severe.”
