A strong person won't let anyone get the best of them.....
but a person of strength gives the best of themselves to everyone (including themselves)....
A strong person works out everyday to keep their body in shape....
but a person of strength kneels in prayer to keep their soul in shape....
A strong person isn't afraid of anything.....
but a person of strength shows courage in the midst of their fear.....
A strong person walks sure-footedly.....
but a person of strength knows God will catch them when they fall.....
A strong person wears the look of confidence on their face......
but a person of strength wears grace (but not always)....
A strong person has faith that they are strong enough for the journey....
but a person of strength has faith that it is in the journey that they will become strong!
The strong falters, but strength increases.
I like this poem, but remember: It's not essential to always be a "Person of Strength." Jesus carries us when we are weak.
