Women Have Strengths That Amaze...
 
They carry children, they carry hardships, they carry burdens,
Yet they hold faith, happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
 
They volunteer for good causes.
They are pink ladies in hospitals, they bring food to shut ins.
They are senators, educators, childcare workers, executives,
Attorneys, truck drivers, pilots, stay at home moms and your neighbors.
 
They fight for what they believe in. They stand up against injustice.
They write to the "powers that be" for things that make for a better life.
They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe there is a better
Solution.
 
They can wipe a tear, cover a cut and pat you on the back at the same
Time.
They go without new shoes so their children can have them.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
 
They tell people that need to be told to straighten up their act.
They lend a shoulder to cry on, an ear to listen and a voice to make
Suggestions.
 
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They have sorrow at the loss of a family member, yet they are strong
When they think there is no strength left.
They can round up energy, even when they are tired.
They can stay up a little longer to talk to someone that needs a friend.
 
Women do more than give birth. They bring peace and hope.
They give compassion and ideals.
They give moral support to their family and friends.
They weep with joy when their children excel, and cheer when loved
Ones get awards.
 
Women want people to grow into the best person they can be.
They want to touch you in a way that will make you share your goodness
With others.
 
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears,
The figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair... True
Beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
 
The beauty of a woman must be seen from her eyes because that is the
Doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
The heart of a woman is what makes the world spin!

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 isn't afraid of anything,
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,
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.
