I'm not ready to dismiss Sam...I don't know. I'm not ready to dismiss Samson as someone the Lord couldn't use because Samson lacked self-control.<br /><br />In fact, I see it from the opposite perspective. Samson had a miserable life because he lacked self-control. But God used him to do great things nonetheless.<br /><br />Daniel on the other hand, seems to have been more at peace. And God used him too.<br /><br />Just thinking it through here, but I'd say self-control is God's gift to us rather than something God needs from us.Marcus Goodyearhttp://highcallingblogs.com/about/marcus-goodyearnoreply@blogger.com
