This document discusses hair and reputation through references to Samson's story from the book of Judges. It suggests that hair announces who you are, represents your heritage and character. Like reputation, hair takes time and care to develop, can change over time, and you choose its style. It then summarizes the biblical story of Samson, how he was destined to deliver Israel from the Philistines due to his uncut hair as a Nazirite, but his reputation and strength were lost when Delilah had his hair cut while he slept. The document connects this to how we are called to be set apart for God and carry his reputation through the Spirit within us.
