Please pray for me. God has abandoned me, and I'm trying to see a way out, but I really don't.

Praying for you and specifically that you will experience the truth of these verses:

Romans 8:37-39 (NIV)
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

And Jeremiah's words
Lamentations 3:21-23 (KJV)
This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

God will bless you - it's how he is. He does not give up on his people. Hold onto that truth.

God is with you. Depression causes so much darkness to draw in around us it can be difficult to let in any light and hold onto faith. Please pray in any way you can manage to dispel some of the darkness. I know that the Holy Spirit is with you.

I have said a prayer for you. You do not say why you think our Father has forsaken.I can assure you that He has not. If you think He has, I can give you His word that says ahe has not.
Deut. 4:31 (For the Lord thy God is a merciful God.) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.

Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

The thought that our Father has left you, imho, is coming from the outside of you from our enemy. Resist him.

Thanks for your prayers everyone. I don't like to feel sorry for myself and certainly don't think I'm above going through trials. But I've been strong for so long and it just feels like it's getting worse, and that's really making me question my faith.

We walk by faith and not by sight. I would add, not by feelings. Sometimes we just have to trust God's word no matter how bad we feel.

Satan loves you in this position doesn't he ? He can feast on it. But there is the passage that says if we draw near to God He will draw nearer to us: James 4:8 8Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

This verse is special to me, i had been praying for some clarity in my walk. I had never read a whole lot in James up till this particular time and in a dream an older man approached me and leaned over to me in a cafeteria line and said "read James". So I did that the very next day and this verse popped right out of the text at me. Aren't we all double- minded really ? We have the ways of our flesh that seem to counter Gods Word on one side of our brains. Then we have the knowledge, the fact of the righteousness of God on the other. And we want Him near and meanwhile go play nurse or some such thing as well LOL. ( not saying you're doing that but put in your own expletive, I bet something takes your mind off Christ).

So draw near to Him, turn away from some things in your life ! I pray you know Jesus as your savior. Amen

Trials of life. Crosses to carry, deserts to cross.

As you go through these things you must remember that God is indeed with you. Did not Jesus suffer for us? Be strong my friend. God will not abandon you. You may feel all alone carrying your heavy cross but think, Jesus is indeed carrying you as you carry your cross!

God bless you and protect you and give you strength.

Here are the lyrics to a song when I get low in my feelings. It helps me a lot. I hope it helps you.
"I Understand"

Oh, oh
Sometimes I feel like giving up
Seems like my best, it just ain't good enough
I feel like I've done all that I can do
Do you see, do you care, Lord
All about what I'm goin' through?

And then He said, one more day, yeah
Oh, just one more step
He says, I'm preparing you, oh, for Myself
And when you can't hear My voice, oh, trust My plan
I am the Lord, I see you, and, yes, I understand

Sometimes I feel like I'm all alone
I'm just like a stranger so far from home
I feel like I've done all that I can do
Oh, please, Lord, give me strength
I'm just tryin' to make it through
Hey, yeah

(One more day) One more step, yeah
(One more step) God says, I'm preparing you, oh, for Myself
And when you can't hear My voice
(Can't hear My voice) Oh, trust My plan
I am the Lord, I see you, and, yes, I understand

He knows just how much you can bear
And in the time of trouble He promised
He would always be there
Yeah, I understand (I understand)
The Lord is telling you, yes, I understand
Oh, I am the Lord, I see you, and, yes, I understand

He says, I am the Lord and I changeth not
And I won't forget nor have I forgot
And everything works according to My plan
I am God, trust Me, I got the whole world in My hands

Oh, one more day, hey, hey
Oh, I'm preparing you, oh,
I'm getting you ready, yeah, for Myself
And when you can't hear My voice,
Oh, don't worry about it
Just trust me enough to know I've got the master plan

I am the Lord, I see everything you're going through, yes
Every burden, every trial, every tribulation, yeah
And I understand, I understand, I understand
I am the Lord, I see what you're goin' through,
And, oh, I understand

God would never give up on you, or leave you. He's always with you. I pray that your heart opens up to Him so you can feel His healing love. God bless you.
I really like your page photo ImaJesusfreak, course we like birds around here, have several feeders around our property with many species visiting.

My prayer is with yours for the OP: and Lord give the OP eyes to see and ears to hear, bring a sense of your presence Lord, so he is aware of your knocking. Amen

I have just been reading the story of Joseph, in Genesis...wow...and he just kept on trusting God. It is worth reading and may encourage you, I pray for you, may you feel God's presence in your life and grow in trust and spiritual strength
bless you my friend in Christ Jesus
