Samson’s Delilah Dilemma: In Her Shoes (Confessions)

In 1966, Percy Sledge released a sultry soulful recorded version of, “When A Man Loves A Woman.” This song quickly became a musical anthem among men who fell prey to the grips of true love, or the fleeting lust of a dangerous (to their soul) woman. The full lyrics penned in this song attempt to explain the love a man may have for his woman, whether she’s considered by others to be good, wayward, or downright strange-fire ratchet! Some men excuse, or defend their honor, even in light of their deceptive behavior. In the case of Samson, many have sadly expressed the travesty it was for him to have been a great anointed Nazirite warrior and ruler over God’s people, who seemingly wasted his young life and strength by giving into his unrestrained passions. Unchecked, those feelings led him to live carelessly. Samson’s disobedience, zeal for violence, action, and his apparent thirst for sexual immorality, caused him to be distracted. Drawn away, deceived, and then snuffed out upon the delicate lap of Delilah, the object of his desire, seemingly the “FAMOUS” (Samson) was subdued by the “INFAMOUS” (Delilah), his cockiness was no match for her coy, coquettish ways. However, behind the scene, God’s orchestration was at work. And for this cause, we will take a deeper look at this great man of God’s plight through this storyteller’s lenses. There, we will discover (in part) why we should celebrate Samson for living his life with EXACT purpose, unto God. Also, written here are short modern-day stories of men and women caught in predicaments and entanglements. Challenging the very nature of their souls and spirits, many come to know God the Father, through His Dear Son, Jesus Christ, the “Great Deliverer!”

Real life lessons we all should know. Book review: (Samson’s Delilah Dilemma). A very powerful book. What an amazing work of art and writing skills. Real life lessons and wisdom applicable to all, and presented so poetically, spiritually, and so down to earth. While humorous and serious at the same time, boy can we relate, for we all have met the characters in this text. From momma to all of the Hatchet E. Ratchets in life, and there are many, and they come in many forms. From the Crafty Cougars to the Barber Barbaras, and we have all been Samson the alley cat. Indeed, beauty has a brain, and there are many tricks and treats. So we see that the devil has no new tricks, because the old ones works so well. Being a minister of the gospel, I already have a few ideas for sermons from this work. Thank you for this literary contribution. It has much life changing potential and it is well worth the money. A good read, and a must have for my personal library. Peace and Blessings to you my Sister. Keep working while it is day. Larry Caldwell Sr. (Minister of the gospel).
