Here's how I understand conviction. From time to time, I tell people that I was so convicted by the pastor's sermon or whatever I heard that it took all my will power not to do anything about it and even several days before the feeling of conviction passes. I actually do say that and I say it as a joke to bring up the point that if you're being convicted, you're being convicted to take action to alleviate the discord between your current state and the better state of affairs you are being convicted of. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||
