Pushback


 "I will never leave you nor forsake you." God has stated (Hebrews 13:5)

"Why have you forsaken me?" the Israelites, King David, and others- including JESUS- cry out in the Bible... the first of countless Christians to do so. We quote this question because that's how low we feel at times. Driven into the loneliest of corners from all sides. In pain and frustration, all we're left with is our limited knowledge, space, time, and understanding.

Because we ARE limited. 

Not that we ever want to admit it or acknowledge how weak we are. But that's what a relationship with God is... love, based on trust.

"I will never leave you or forsake you." (Deuteronomy 31:6 & 8)

The certainty of this verse rests on its source. An all-knowing God. Knowing it's okay to yell, cry, and even to question. That it's alright to move ahead without all the answers. That it's okay if you let something else lead the way.

"I will never leave you nor forsake you." (Joshua 1:5)
