Have you ever felt forsaken?

Have you ever found yourself feeling that you had been forsaken?   

Have you ever found yourself thinking you had been forsaken?

I have.   It's so miserable.... especially when your feelings are telling you that someone close to your heart has forsaken you, or even feeling that God has forsaken you.  

Sweet friend, if this feels far too familiar, I just want to encourage you with something important.   Those negative feelings and thoughts are not Truth!      

It just means it's time to dig in deeper; it's time to soak a little longer on Truth and linger there.   Abide there....

We have to recognize AND replace quickly!    RECOGNIZE it's a lie AND quickly REPLACE the lie with TRUTH.    And some days,  it's doing it over and over through out the day!

It helps me whenever I stop and ask myself, what is the opposite of the lie.   In this case,  soaking in the names of God to remind myself who God is, really helped me.   Jehovah Shammah means - "God who is there" and then looking up verses to support this name of God.   

Psalm 9:10 reminds us that the "Lord never forsakes those who seek Him".

Psalm 90:1 gives comfort in "before the mountains were born, before YOU gave birth to the earth and the world, from eternity to eternity, YOU ARE GOD.

Psalm 121 gives assurance that "my help comes from The Lord, who made heaven and earth.   He will not let your foot be moved;  He who keeps you will not slumber or sleep"

I know this can be a tough subject and it affects so many of us!   So I wanted to start our 2025 Encouragement Club off with these powerful and precious reminders!
