If:   A B C D E F G H I J K  L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:  1 2 3 4 5  6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then  H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K is represented as:  8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 and = 98%

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E is represented as: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 and = 96%

And:

 A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E represented as 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5  = 100%

 
 
THEN, look how far the love of God will take  you:
