WHY HAS GOD FORSAKEN ME?!?

He has Not, I assure you, It doesn’t matter who you are or what you’ve done. Jesus Christ came into this world to save sinners (1 Timothy 1:15), and we are all sinners (Romans 3:23) and not one of us is outside the reach of God’s saving grace. The apostle Paul is a great example. He spent his life hating, imprisoning, persecuting and even killing Christians, and one encounter with Jesus Christ turned him into one of the greatest Christians who ever lived. Indeed, we are the crown jewel of His creation, made in His image (Genesis 1:26), and God wants all of us to be saved (1 Timothy 2:4), and none of us to perish (2 Peter 3:9; Ezekiel 18:32). Now, to those who believe in His name, He gave the right to become children of God (John 1:12), and what He will do for His children is poignantly described by God Himself in Psalm 91: “’Because he loves me,’ says the LORD, ‘I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him’” (Psalm 91:14-16).
