All of us have experienced moments in our lives when we feel alone and forsaken. Loneliness makes a terrible companion.  It slowly wraps one in its dark cloak of sadness and never offers any comfort.  No matter how close you may be to another person, be it spouse, parent or friend, we can still feel the icy solitude and isolation. If we rely on others to always provide companionship, we will be disappointed at some time.  This is not true concerning Christ.

Jesus Christ will never leave you or forsake you.  He will never desert you or leave you alone.  He remains by your side, never withdrawing His presence from you.  It is against His character to abandon you, no matter the circumstances.  Even when we turn from Him, He never turns from us.  It is impossible for Him to forget you.  He created you before the foundations of the world were even made (Ephesians 1:4).  He formed you in the womb (Psalm 139:13), and knows your every bone and sinew (Psalm 139).  You are engraved on the palms of His hands and imprinted on the walls of His heart (Isaiah 49:16).  He knows you intimately.  To forsake you would go against every fiber of His character!  It is literally impossible for Him forget or forsake you!
