I finished 1 Corinthians yesterday; started 1 Samuel this morning.
This struck me in that first chapter: Have you ever noticed the similarities between Samuel and Samson in the way they started out? And yet the end of the book for each is quite different. Granted Samson is named in the "Faith Chapter" (Hebrews 11). But which path would you prefer for your child? The one who constantly dabbles in sexual exploits, only to see God deliver him and bring glory to God? Or the one who said at the end of his life, "I have never wronged these people in any way"?
Well, I haven't thought it through very much. It just occurred to me this morning.
What do you think?

- Currently, I am posting my "musings on Ephesians." This was a 6 1/2 month process of allowing Paul's letter to Ephesus to speak to me about my situations. Some of it gets rather personal. But hopefully it can help you too.
