A strong woman spends time on her knees. A strong woman sheds tears nobody sees. A strong woman often falls apart and people see that as a weakness. A strong woman has many flaws, but she gets back up and keeps going, that's what makes her strong. When people see her in public or on Facebook, for the most part all they see is the good side of things.
They don't see the rejection from her family no matter how much she gives. They don't see the hours she spends fighting just to stay alive. They don't see the good she does for others when no is around... but God sees. He sees her tears and bottles them up. He carries her broken body across the hot desert sand. He caresses her face with moonlit nights. He whispers in her ear, I am here. He sends her flowers in the spring,and sunsets aglow in the evening.
A strong woman never gives up hope, never gives up fighting for all her dreams. She tries to find good in everything and everyone,but sometimes her eyesight grows dim, her soul becomes weary. For a moment she isn't strong, she is weak and vulnerable and let's the world see that she is not invincible. That's when she thinks her friends have let her down,but she keeps coming back, even to the ones who she thinks are letting her down. That's what makes her strong.
On the outside she is crying. All the world sees are the tears. All they see is heap of trash. But God, ohh he sees something more. He sees a wound that needs tending, a heart that needs mending. He sees a strong woman inside.
