David said it:
My God, my God, why have You Forsaken me? Why are You so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? O my God, I call out by day, but You do not answer; And by night, but I find no rest nor quiet. Psalm 22:1-2
Then
Jesus
said it:
About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud [agonized] voice,
“Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is,
My God, my God, why have You Forsaken me? Matthew 27:46
Now
Have you said it?
My God, my God, why have You Forsaken me?
Forsaken
Abandoned
Oh I have said it in those moments of ~
Do you hear me
Do you see me
Do you even know I exist
because if you did
You would not be forsaking me.
But has God really forsaken us?
Jesus
had the right to cry those words
because
Christ didn’t have any sin.
But God made Him become sin for us.
So we can be made right with God because of what
Christ has done for us. II Corinthians 5:21
So, has God Forsaken you?
It may feel like it,
in those moments when you feel
your cries are not being heard;
when
your circumstances aren't changing;
when
you are doing all that you are supposed to be doing.
&
Nothing
still happens.
How do you feel
Forsaken
at this moment?
How is Jesus'
My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?
in His darkest moment
Enough
to
Bring light
in your
"Forsaken"
moments?
Because
He Is
with you & I
when we are alone.
He Is
our strength when we are weak.
He Is
our peace when we are anxious.
He Is
our joy when we are depressed.
He Is
our everything when we feel we are nothing.
He Is
because
He was Forsaken~
And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of
His glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19
Therefore,
let's
Fast
from the weight of feeling
Forsaken
by
looking up
to the
One
Who
He Himself has said,
"I will never leave you
nor Forsake you."
Hebrews 13:5
