  • When You Feel Abandoned

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 5, 2026
     | 85 views

    Psalm 22 reveals that honest lament is not faithlessness but faithful endurance, culminating in Christ’s cry from the cross. Because Jesus entered abandonment for us, silence is never absence, and suffering is never the end of the story.

    Have you ever felt that God has left you? Not in a theoretical sense. Not the kind of question that shows up in a classroom discussion or a late-night debate about faith and reason. I mean something much more personal than that—something that settles into your chest and refuses to leave. Have you ...read more

    God invites us to move beyond cynicism, trust His surprising work, and expect transformation when we honestly bring our doubts and hopes to Jesus in prayer.

    Some of us carry a quiet weariness. We scroll headlines, hear hard news, and think, “Here we go again.” Cynicism creeps in like a cold draft. We start to shrink our hopes, trim our prayers, and settle for safe, small expectations. We wonder if real change is possible. We wonder if God still ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 115 views

    God’s grace meets us in our sin and need, offering true freedom and acceptance through faith in Jesus, not our own efforts.

    Some of us arrived today feeling like life has been a long hallway of closed doors. You knocked on the door of good intentions and it stayed shut.

    Following Jesus means surrendering our comfort and control, embracing self-denial, and trusting that true life and reward are found in obedient discipleship with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile on our face and a storm in our chest. The calendar is crowded, the heart is heavy, and the questions are louder than ever. You’ve been faithful, you’ve prayed, you’ve pressed on—and still, there are days when following Jesus feels like walking uphill with a ...read more
