I looked at others to seek happiness,
but true happiness comes from within me.
I looked for an outward source of light,
when I was in darkness,
but the light was inside myself,
waiting to be ignited.
I looked for help to heal my pain,
but my coping tools lied within me.
I searched for outside solutions for my recovery,
but the answers were always inside me.
I looked and leaned on others for strength,
but the strength was inside me.
I looked anywhere but where I was to make my dreams come true,
but I looked too far, because only I can make my dreams come true.
I looked far off into the horizon to find hope,
but hope can only come from within me.
My entire life I searched for something outside myself,
but the answer to everything has always been inside me.
I found God and He has always been with me,
patiently waiting for me to find Him,
know Him and love Him.
He has always loved me,
been a force behind me,
and gave me the strength I needed.
God is the key to my happiness
and the solution for my pain, problems and worries.
God is the answer for my recovery
and the reason for my life.
