Samson had superhuman strength. He ended up falling in love with a woman named Delilah. The Philistines found out about this and made a deal with Delilah to give her lots of money if she found out the source of Samson's strength.
Delilah asked several times and each time, Samson told her what she could use to bind him. All except the last time, what he told her was not his source of strength. But after each time he told her something, she did it to him to try and take his strength away.
I do not understand Samson. Why, after having all those things done to you, would you finally tell her the true source of his strength? Was it love? Was Delilah that cunning?
What I can take from this is that I need to watch out for those who can etch away at me and lead me to sin. I need to stay strong in the Lord always.
