Strong vs Strength

When was your last interview for a leadership position or any position for that matter? Did you fear that all-looming question: “What do you consider your strengths and, likewise, your weaknesses?” Well, ignoring the ‘weakness’ part of that question, just for fun and a bit of self-examination, let’s consider the following take on “A Strong Woman vs a Woman of Strength.” 

• 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 is not afraid of anything – but a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of her fear.

• A strong woman will not let anyone get the best of her – but a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.

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

Strong vs strength – both are excellent virtues, but would you rather be known for being strong or for what you stand for?
