Do not turn your back on me.
Do not reject your servant in anger.
You have always been my helper.
Don’t leave me now; don’t abandon me,
O God of my salvation! Psalm 27:9

As believers in Jesus Christ, there’s no retreat when it comes to our faith. In stormy times, we have to hold on to our hope which is the anchor (Jesus) of our souls who holds us steady.
He is the only foundation which will not be shaken. When my feelings sway my trust must be placed firmly in the Scriptures which assure me of His love.
Amen
I don’t think I have felt he has rejected me, but there have been times in my life when I haven’t understood the why of circumstances. I have found, that in time, I get over it.
I have had many whys and I do have to admit there are many times when I feel His presence withdraw. I have come to understand that is more about my feelings and sometimes my own behavior which blocks His presence than it is about His location.
Yes, he is there, but often we turn away in our behavior toward him.
Sad but true.
Never anymore.
I have to say rejection is still one of the roots I the Holy Spirit is digging out of me. I am one who has to stand on the Word continually rather than the way I feel about the circumstance.
I’ve been steeping in the gospel of Grace for 5 1/2 years (Pastor Joseph Prince, Singapore)–it has done wonders for me. I love how you described that–“standing on the Word”–can’t think of a better place, brother 🙂
Me neither!
