Samson’s life is a striking example of how divine gifting does not guarantee godly living. Though his strength was a supernatural gift from God, his decisions were often driven by personal desires, impulses, and emotional reactions.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an inheritance [b]incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

Jesus, in His love and mercy, invites us to lay down what crushes our hearts. He alone has the power to carry what we cannot, and to heal the brokenness that sin and sorrow leave behind. When we bring our pain to Him, we find rest, not because the weight disappears, but because He takes it from us and replaces it with peace.
