And right smack dab when Israel was in distress,
Samson was born.
Son of a long childless mom.
"Mercies often waited for, often prove signal mercies,
and by them others may be encouraged to continue their hope in God's mercy."
Matthew Henry.
When you feel your trouble the most,
God often sends comfort.
There are answers to prayer I hold closely---
the compassion of God after a gang rape,
the healing of perceived childhood harm,
the loss of 5 babies to miscarriage, maybe twins,
the birth of Britt after 7 years,
the victory over cancer after 15 years,
the amazing freedom from a felt betrayal.
All Signal Mercies.
the birth of Britt after 7 years,

All Signal Mercies.
Matthew Henry wrote:
"Sin dispirits men; it hides from their eyes the things that belong to their peace."
When the Spirit of God came upon Samson, his cords were loosed. The victory for Samson was common means---the sorry jawbone of an animal slew a thousand.
