Follow Me

Sermonette by Hunter D. Swanson

In this heartfelt message, the speaker reflects on the death of his mother as one of the most transformative experiences o his life, not because of the overwhelming pain it caused, but because of how profoundly and deeply it revealed God's presence, comfort and purpose. Through every painful stage of her suffering, he learned that beneath each tear, each act of kindness, and even as death occurred, God was working, strengthening faith, extending mercy, saying " You'll be okay, Now follow Me." Matthew 8:19-22 summons us to move from earthly attachment to spiritual discipleship. II Corinthians 12:7-10 teaches that God's strength is made perfect in weakness and that believers should trust Christ amid suffering, realizing that insights gained from these trials may strengthen, encourage , and uplift others . We must guard against isolation and self- pity , tools that Satan uses to stifle witness. Instead, God's people should exercise compassion, fellowship and testimony , echoing Isaiah 43: 1-3, 10-11, where Almighty God promises to be with His people during every trial. Even in devasting hardship and loss, God sovereignly shapes His children to follow Christ more closely, bearing witness to i His saving work strengthening His people. The speaker concludes: " My mom dying was one of the best things that ever happened to me—because it showed me that even when life feels impossible, God makes it possible.
