I will not tell you what I think or believe but I will tell you what God says instead.

(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.
Deuteronomy 4:31
​

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Deuteronomy 31:6

And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
1 Kings 6:13


​

There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Joshua 1:5
​

And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Psalms 9:10

​

For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
Psalms 37:28
​

If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
Psalms 89:30

​

For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
Psalms 94:14
​

And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.
Isaiah 42:16


​

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Matthew 28:19


​

We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body
2 Corinthians 4:8



​

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.
Hebrews 13:5


​

So my dear sister I ask you a question, will God leave you?

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

Romans 8:38-39; 9:1
​

He wants you to trust in His Word.

You ask what will it take for God to give up on you. The truth is its not Him who gives up on us, but rather it is us who gives up on Him and the path that He has chosen for us. And many will give up on Him. But He will never forsake you. All you have to do is trust in that.

So God4ever, in the end will you give up? That is the question we all need to ask ourselves. Keep fighting the good fight of Faith

You have that choice, I promise if you dont give up you will persevere from this illness and it will make you stronger and with greater Faith. But you must endure, just like the rest of us. )



Ps. I dont think God can ever get enough of you

I wouldn't worry about God's end of things. He sent His Son for you.

You have OCD. You must tell yourself this is an illness. That will be your start to recovery. Exposure/response therapy will then help you get on your way.

It does not help you for us to keep reassuring you. I'm not trying to be mean. I only want you well. Jesus loves you and we do too.

Yes, believe us, this is just another manifestation of the religious OCD. Just another slightly different variation.

This has helped me the past few days.. It's from Isaiah 54


6 The LORD will call you back
as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit—
a wife who married young,
only to be rejected," says your God.
7 "For a brief moment I abandoned you,
but with deep compassion I will bring you back.
8 In a surge of anger
I hid my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness
I will have compassion on you,"
says the LORD your Redeemer.
9 "To me this is like the days of Noah,
when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth.
So now I have sworn not to be angry with you,
never to rebuke you again. 10 Though the mountains be shaken
and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken
nor my covenant of peace be removed,"
says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

Yes, God is Good isnt He?

It was never His intention to just leave us but rather to bring us to Him. And to establish an intimate personal relationship with Him.

If He was gonna just leave us, He would never have came

[god4ever]

the reason is i have had people tell me and have read that god won't always terry. I just want god to say you haven't committed the unpardonable sin

I interpret that to mean that people may not have forever to make peace with God if they continually harden their hearts towards accepting Christ as savior and Lord.

I know that the OCD is what fuels this. Been there, done it myself. It keeps you from being able to accept any reassurances ...at least for very long.

 

[god4ever]

ok thanks

I wholeheartedly agree with Seajoy and KayKay this obsession needs to be treated in the same way all OCD obsessions are to be treated. Ignore it.
Any how I'm quite sure that you realize that God doesn't abandon people because they have an illness. Right? The obsession is a symptom of an illness/disorder called OCD. That's all it is. It isn't valid or worthy of your attention. Give it attention by demanding unending proofs and demanding certainty over and over again - and it will grow fiercer in it's ability to cause you horrible mental pain.
The reason Seajoy, Kaykay and myself don't give you reassurances is that we know through experience that to do so only makes the OCD worse - makes the obsession seem all the more urgent and valid.
Look that obsession straight in the face and say: "yeah whatever, nice try, bug off!" Then turn your attention to something else, even while the words of the obsession are still stuck in your brain. That's OK. You can learn to ignore static on the radio so treat the thoughts the same way. Meaningless noise.
I'm praying for you.
