Established By Encouragement Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

My God, My God ,why Have You Forsaken Me." Series

Contributed by Claude Alexander on Apr 3, 2021

"My God, My God ,why have you forsaken me." Matt. 27:46; Mark 15:34 The fourth word of Jesus from the cross discloses a sense of hope when we remember the whole psalm from which it comes.

David did not need a telescope to consider the heavens and the wonders of God's creation. What he could see with the naked eye left him in awe at the majesty of God.
