Hebrews 11 has been described as an "amazing assemblage." Men and women who lived by faith are held up as examples of how GOD would have us live today. By faith, the men and women of Hebrews 11 glorified Jehovah.
Of all the names, perhaps the most surprising is Samson. When you read Judges 13-16 you see that Samson fell short in his relationships with others. Yet, there he is in Hebrews 11:32. Consider what is said of those in Hebrews 11 in verses 30-40 and appreciate that those things are true of Samson too.
Living by faith doesn't mean that we always get it right. It means that when we get it wrong we turn to Him. There is grace, mercy and forgiveness to be found in Him. Samson found it. Will we? If so, He will add our names to His "amazing assemblage."
