One thought on Pastor Tim Merwin's Sermon "Now to Him: A Vision for 2021" on December 27, 2020 at Trinity Community Church Titusville.

“I am not here to guilt you or shame you,” but the Holy Spirit is here to convict you, my friends. Because, even as Pastor Tim Merwin mentioned, “this sermon wasn’t about prayer” per se, it was about the God to whom we pray. Likewise, healthy conviction is not condemnation or the hopelessness of shame and guilt. Conviction really isn’t all that much about you, in fact. It is the Holy Spirit’s invitation for you to turn from the lesser to the good, the beautiful, and the better that you don’t even really believe you’re missing--all the while gaining assurance that Christ has taken any eternal consequences for you already; therefore properly mourning your abject ridiculousness from a place of freedom.

Does it hurt? Yes. Is it gloriously, abundantly hopeful and freeing? Yes.

Because the God to whom we speak (if that alone doesn’t stir a little something in you…) is far more able than we could fathom, displaying His glory, through His power at work within us, His church, forever.

I’m constantly comforted that when something seems off in my relationship with God, I can confidently know that it’s my problem. (It sounds like it shouldn’t be, but it really, really is.) I have misunderstood who He is, since, by definition, He is perfect. And now, we get to discover specifically what’s gone wrong. AND His self-revelation for His glory that I might reflect it back is His greatest joy; that’s what His love towards me looks like, because it’s exactly what I need. Kinda sounds like we were made for each other. Don’t you think?

There will always be a layer of sin between me and any other human being. Certainly, that is lessened in my brothers and sisters in Christ because we are able to actually live in that “already, not yet” reality of both knowing that such sin is melting away; but it’s also not totally gone.

But there’s no “already, not yet” with Him. He is the already and the not yet, the beginning and the end, the eternal, unchangeable One.

But He is my God. And I am His.
