Look Inside When the prize seems high above you And your mirror doesn't love you Look inside. When the road to gold gets steeper And your diamond's buried deeper Look inside. Light a candle in your mind Untold riches you will find When you look for treasures Look inside. When you're running low on laughter And can't reach the goals you're after Look inside. When your body starts complaining And the clouds of doubt keep raining Look inside. Close your eyes and then believe it Trust God and you'll achieve it. When you're seeking answers Look inside.

“I’ll do the judging,” says God. “Don’t insist on getting even.” You have an opportunity to teach your children a valuable lesson in forgiveness. God dispenses perfect justice. Have that same attitude Jesus showed in his life and on the cross! “I’ll take care of it,” says God!
The right attitude is also essential for putting your unique potential into action and acquiring the desired result.
