A WOMAN OF STRENGTH
a favorite poem of Mary Loaec, who studied with us on Thursday mornings, and went home to be with her Savior on September 6, 2007.
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,
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of 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.
