Judges | Unknown, Unfruitful, Uncertain

 

Judges 13-14:4 // The story of Samson. When we first are introduced to Samson, we are told about his mother. However, she is never named. Yet we have confidence that she was not unknown to God. God sees us, knows us, and loves us. Psalm 139:1-6. Samson’s mother was barren before she gave birth to her son. When we consider fruitfulness is our lives – we must remember that it is expected however seasons are normal. Barrenness is not death. What brings unfruitful character in our lives? Anxieties, cares, pursuing riches, and our desire for comfort and convenience. Our calling is to be rooted and grounded in God’s love, to abide in Him and so to avoid a life of trying harder. Rest in the Lord.
