"Bennie, what's inside counts the most. Anybody can dress up on the outside and be dead inside" That was the word of Sonya Carson to her son Ben Carson.

It's very unfortunate that must parents nowadays concentrates so much on how their kids looks outward without considering the inward. It's the engine of a car that determine how far it will reach. In a liked manner, the spirit (inner man) is what count the most not the body. The body is the container housing the spirit and the soul. It's the quality of what is in your inside that counts and determines how you will look outside

The body does not detect for the spirit. The body obeys the spirits not the other way round. Therefore, it's very important that we mind what we watch, our thoughts, words. Feeding on the Word of the Lord will solidify your inner man to be able to withstand all the fiery darts of the enemy towards your life.

Just as the body need physical food, the spirit of a man need spiritual food the most. The food of the spirit is the Word of God. That's why the Jesus speaking "It's the Spirit that quickeneth, the body profited nothing; the Word that I speak to you, they are spirit and they are live"

The words of Sonya Carson was of great influence to Ben Carson up to today because those words are life and spirit.

Choice to think the right thoughts, speak the right words, move with the right people to help fortify your inner man. For when challenges comes your way, it's what Is in your inside that will determine the manifestation of your victory.

Indeed, what is inside count the most.
