ON “RESPONSIBILITY”

ON “RESPONSIBILITY”

In Judges 13, an angel declared the coming birth of Samson, who was to become a man of great destiny. God gifted him with supernatural strength to deliver his people from the hands of the Philistines, but Samson didn’t take responsibility for what he had been given. He let his guard down, set his eyes on the wrong thing, began to rebel against what he knew was right, and was weakened in his morals. He began to hang around the wrong people and got into a bad living situation. Just as the Bible states, “Bad company corrupts good character” (1 Corinthians 15:33), so it was with Samson. He did not guard what he was doing or saying, and he ended up tragically in the hands of his enemies, blind and chained. When you learn to take responsibility, it means you value what God gave you as gifts! That’s it!!!
