A Strong Woman vs.  A Woman of Strength
 

By Lavida Harris
 

A strong woman
works out every day to keep her body in shape...
but

A woman of strength
kneels in prayer to keep her soul in shape...

A strong woman
isn't afraid of anything...
of Strength
but

A woman of strength
shows courage in the midst of her fear...

A strong woman
won't let anyone get the best of her...
but

A woman of strength
gives the best of her to everyone...

A strong woman
makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future...

A woman of strength
realizes life's mistakes can also be God's blessings

and capitalizes on them...

A strong woman
walks sure footedly...
but

A woman of strength
knows God will catch her when she falls...

A strong woman
wears the look of confidence on her face...
but

A woman of strength
wears grace...

A strong woman
has faith that she is strong enough for the journey...
but

A woman of strength
has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong...
