Glad to help! I keep trying out different translations in my head but they all lose a lot of the meaning. I keep thinking somewhere along the lines of "un vistazo/una mirada hacia lo alto" but I can't make it fit with "good" LOL.

Thank you Jesi, your explanation is excellent. I will try to find the Spanish words that express what you said.
J Celeita (X) May 18, 2010:
the uplook = is good because he is looking up at God.
the outlook = our attitude towards life, not what's around us.
the inlook = looking inwards into his soul/self, etc.
This is a famous quote. Basically he is saying that faith makes everything in all directions good, "up", "out" (from us, not out as in what's out there), "in", and "forward".

hace que tu mirada hacia arriba sea buena, ... que tu mirada hacia tu interior sea favorable, ...

con la inclusión de "the outlook bright" te sugiero:

La fé hace que tu mirada hacia arriba sea buena, que tu visión de tus perspectivas sea prometedora, que tu mirada hacia tu interior sea favorable, ...

... para lograr el mismo efecto como la repetición de "...look" en el original

relación con lo divino, paisaje interior

Hola, yo lo pondría más o menos así. Espero te sirva la sugerencia:
"La fé nos da una buena relación con lo divino, ilumina el paisaje a nuestro alrededor, otorga una vida interna (o paisaje interior, relación con nuestro interior)favorable y un futuro glorioso".
