Divine Reflection

Think of the hopes that lies 
before you, 
Not the waste that lies 
behind you.
Think of the treasure you 
have gathered, 
Not the lost opportunity you 
have sheathed.
Think of the happiness of 
others, 
And how to put a broken 
heart together.
Think of the service you can 
render to God, 
Not the pursuit of diamond 
of diamond and gold.
Think of that bright and 
rewarding future, 
Not the imagination of an 
evil picture.
Think of becoming that 
great man of all time, 
And how to leave your 
footprint on the sand of 
time.
Think of how to make life 
better, 
Not to make it taste bitter.
Think of how to make 
someone smile each day, 
And how to please God 
everyday.
Think of how to make 
yourself a role model to 
everyone else, 
And not trying to be 
someone else.
Think of the best way to 
use your ability, 
And how best you can carry 
out your responsibility.
Think of being that 
extraordinary hero, 
And erasing every thought 
of you being a zero.
Think of that long lasting 
victory, 
Not the pain of the past 
misery.
Think of being God's 
treasure, 
Not trying to be part of 
earth's pleasure.
Think of being God's 
instrument of peace, 
And being a blessing to 
human race.
Think of being the best of 
your kind, 
And not chasing something 
you know you can't find.
Think of narrating that your 
story, 
And not relying on past 
glory.
Think of the problems you 
can help to solve, 
And how to cherish others 
in peace and love.
Above all think of walking 
towards the path of 
success, 
And then you'll make it to 
the pinnacle of greatness.
