CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Selections from Judges 16.
MOLESKIN:
The thrust of what I talked about is the fact that Samson acted like an idiot with Delilah. He knew this woman did not have his best interest at heart, and still continued in his relationship to her after multiple times where she proved untrustworthy. I think Samson did that because he relied on himself and his strength to get out of his trouble. However, once he revealed his heart to Delilah, Judges 16:20 records some of the most frightening words in Scripture, “But he did not know that the Lord had left him.” To be honest, I think we all have a little Samson inside of us. We think we can master or control or lives. Many times that will evidence itself in how we think we have sin under control. We sometimes live like we can play with sin and never get hurt. I encouraged us all to be quick to repent and find forgiveness because sin bites, kills, and separates.

The only thing that’s always consistent in your life is that you always have yourself. Wake up and show up for yourself, even when there are no results to motivate you. You always have yourself and can be there for you. You have the choice every single morning and decide whether or not you want to get better, and no one can decide that for you nor can they stop you from doing it.
