“A person like this is the strongest person. The strongest person is not the one who is able to do something, but the one who is able not to do what he has the power to do.”

If Christ lives in us, we will rejoice in everything, and we will thank and praise the Lord. We will say, ‘Hallelujah! Praise the Lord’ forever.

I want nothing for myself; I want everything for the Lord.

Samson is not alone in the history of man in failing in this regard. Delilah is still cutting the hair of man today!

A Christian life is an unending engagement on the battlefield.
