Power and Strength
(Proverbs 24:5,10 NIV)
[5] A wise man has great power, and a man of knowledge increases strength; [10] If you falter in times of trouble how small is your strength.
* Through persistent action, water will erode a rock. Water is powerful. Toss the same eroded rock into the pool of water drops that caused it's erosion and the rock will crash through the surface uncontested, coming to rest on the bottom. Water is not strong.
Power and strength. People need both. A man of knowledge increases his strength by learning where he's weak. A man of wisdom takes that knowledge and puts together a plan to overcome through persistence ... just like dripping water.
