Samson is an epic story found in the Old Testament book of Judges. Samson is very strong. He is a bit like Hercules. He performs amazing feats of strength, provided he does not cut his hair. Unfortunately, Samson had a weakness - women. He was not good at choosing the right partner. 3 times this was his undoing. The tragedy is he tells Delilah the secret of his strength - his hair. She betrays him to his arch enemies the Philistines who blind him and put him in prison. Samson is in serious Lockdown. The lesson for us? Be careful who you choose as your partner. This is the biggest decision of your life. Make sure it is more than a physical attraction; do you share vision, values and trust?
The end of the story is spectacular. Find it in Judges 16...
