Based on my personal experience, I'd have to say I haven't seen a single one of my "weaknesses" (read faults or shortcomings) become strengths, but I have seen them lead me to an increased dependence on God. So, maybe I'm manipulating Moroni to fit Paul, but that makes more sense to me.

Please don't take offense at me being irritated at my perceived misinterpretation of the scripture. What's always irritated me is when people get up and talk about the Ether scripture without any real thought or experience behind it. You've shown plenty of thought with your analysis of both scriptures.
