Is it better to be a weak person in a strong way, or to be a strong person in a weak way?
Actually we are all strong within our inner selves, it is only in living this person as our outer self that we can be weak. We think that what is affecting us inwardly from our outer life and its circumstances needs always to be dealt with in a strong way. When we can't always yet do this satisfactorily without feeling any pain or some arising fear, we think that we must therefore be weak in some way.
How can we become stronger to be our true inner selves more in our outer life?
Inner strength comes from love. This means that to convey this inner strength and to bring it into your outer life, you must also love this outer life.
When you see only pain and negativity this never allows you to love, because you are not seeing the fuller picture.
All is perfect on the inner and the outer for you to perfectly learn about it from, and to allow you to experience love in a way that encourages you to share your learning with others, and so to help build love's own recognition of its own strengths. Love is strong, but it takes us to live its strength for it by simply loving. When we only just love without any other consideration being taken into account we are strong, the strongest that we can ever be for right now.
Only love has the strength to live in us when all else has failed us. Each time that we love, we gain more of its strength to be able to keep loving. Love builds on its own strengths within us when we are being our real selves.
Inner strength gathers and builds from within as we learn and understand love more, and as we increase in awareness to consciously be able to decide to love rather than to just live from the consideration of our own thoughts of what to do. Love always reaches past our mind and our thoughts back to God. We can never fully understand this greatness of God's love by just thinking about it.
As your inner strength to live from greater and greater levels of love grows, the impulse from your soul to live a spiritually based life will also start to take greater hold of you too. You are dominated by what you show the most interest in. If you show interest in negativity, this side of you will be bolstered or strengthened within you. Eventually though if you just love, all will naturally balance itself out and re-align itself in you to this love, and at this stage you will live from the intuitional thrust of your soul, rather than the leanings of your lower
