Go in the strength you have…

I ran across some thoughts I've used before concerning working/living/ministering out of your strengths. I thought of them again as I talked about how God said to Gideon "Go in the strength you have…" (Judges 6:14)…think on it…

Strengths: Consistent near perfect performance in an activity.

3 of the most important principles of living a strong life:

1) For an activity to be a strength, you must be able to do it consistently.

2) You do not have to have strength in every aspect of your role in order to excel.

3) You will excel only by maximizing your strengths, never by fixing your weaknesses.

(Taken from Now, Discover Your Strengths – Marcus Buckingham and Donald Clifton)

Do you agree?
