SO GOOD QUOTES

The message that the Lord is sending our way is the following, there might be a lion in your life, threatening your spiritual and eternal life, and the physical desires of your body could be very strong in your life; however, if you submit to God, His Spirit will come upon you just like Samson, and you will be able to slaughter that lion which is threatening your eternal life. Not only will you kill the lion, but also honey could come forth out of it, and you could then say along with Samson:

“Out of the eater came something to eat, and out of the strong came something sweet.” Judges 14:14) The physical desires, which are ruining your life, could thus be transformed into a relationship of love with God, similar to St. Augustine.

….

Do not seek excuses, saying that the physical desires are very strong; what should you do if your instincts are too strong to control? Submit to the Spirit of God; as the Spirit of the Lord came upon Samson and enabled him to overpower the lion, and as St. Augustine was able to control his desires, so shall you, and you will be able to kill that lion which is threatening your spiritual life as well as your eternal life.
