GODWhen things get tough

Ps 13

13 How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?How long will You hide Your face from me? 2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul,Having sorrow in my heart daily?How long will my enemy be exalted over me?

3 Consider and hear me, O Lord my God;Enlighten my eyes,Lest I sleep the sleep of death; 4 Lest my enemy say,"I have prevailed against him";Lest those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

5 But I have trusted in Your mercy;My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. 6 I will sing to the Lord,Because He has dealt bountifully with me. NKJV

Matt 27:4646 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, " Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? "that is," My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me? "

Can He forsake us?? WHY?

Heb 13:5-6Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, "I WILL NEVER DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER FORSAKE YOU," 6 so that we confidently say,"THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID.WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?"

Eternal perspective

Never forget us never forsake usIsa 49:15-16

15 "Can a mother forget the infant at her breast,walk away from the baby she bore?But even if mothers forget,I'd never forget you — never. 16 Look, I've written your names on the backs of my hands.The walls you're rebuilding are never out of my sight.

Isa 59:1919 So shall they fearThe name of the Lord from the west,And His glory from the rising of the sun;When the enemy comes in like a flood,The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.

5 I lay down and slept;I awoke, for the Lord sustained me. 6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of peopleWho have set themselves against me all around.

7 Arise, O Lord; Save me, O my God!For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone;You have broken the teeth of the ungodly. 8 Salvation belongs to the Lord.Your blessing is upon Your people.

3 Consider and answer me, O Lord my God;Enlighten my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death, 4 And my enemy will say, "I have overcome him,"And my adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken.

5 But I have trusted in Your lovingkindness;My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. 6 I will sing to the Lord,Because He has dealt bountifully with me
