A Prayer for When You Feel God Has Abandoned You
By Lori Schumaker The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? – Jeremiah 17:9 NIV The world misleads us and tells us "Follow your heart" or "Go with your feelings." But our hearts and our feelings are not stable. They sway with the events of each day. They can mislead us as they vacillate and often walk us into the depths of deception and pain. Why would we follow what is unstable, inconsistent, and unreliable? Why wouldn't we instead choose to follow an unchanging Truth? The Truth of God. As I began pouring out in prayer every gut-wrenching emotion in my heart, God began revealing truth. 
If you are in that place of hurting, in that place where you feel as though God has left your side, I urge you to continue pursuing deep relationship with Jesus by incorporating these 6 strategies into your everyday life. I promise, a day will come where you will once again feel His presence and see His handiwork. 1. Pray boldly and authentically. Pour out all that lies in the heart. 2. Listen for His answers. Sometimes we speak and do too much, drowning out the subtle voice of Jesus. 3. Praise God for all He is! Gratitude and praise are powerful weapons against pain. |
