God Will Never Turn His Back On You

Psalm 25:16

Turn to me and be gracious to me for I am lonely and afflicted.

At certain times in your life, you might feel lonely. Loneliness is an internal feeling. When loneliness hits you, it feels like everyone has turned his back on you. And worst of all, you might feel that God Himself has turned His back on you. 

When David said to God to turn to him, he was feeling lonely and afflicted. David’s heart was hurting yet he didn’t complain! David was simply asking God to turn to him. He just wanted to be seen by God. David knew that as long as God saw him and his situation, that would be enough.

Do you feel lonely to the extent that you feel like God has turned His back on you today? Rest assured, God has never turned His back on you, and He will never will! 

Prayer

Dear God, I am coming to You to surrender all the lonely feeling that I am having. I wait on You because I know You will never turn Your back on me. Amen.
