The Cooling Stream

Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you. See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Your walls are continually before Me. (Isaiah 49:15-16)

• It is an overwhelming feeling that no one cares anything about you.
   
• It is a real and excruciatingly painful feeling.
   
• But even though people may abandon us, God’s love and presence is assured.
   
• The Lord promises that He will never leave us (Deut. 31:8).
   
• He will be with us wherever we go, always, even to the end of the age (Matt. 28:20).
   
• The Lord will never falter in His commitment to His children.
   
• Even if we have been abandoned by others, we can find confidence in God's promise that nothing will ever separate us from His love (Rom. 8:35-39).
   
• Let us thank our Heavenly Father for His never-failing presence in every aspect of our lives.
   
• We can count on His promise never to abandon us.
   
• Confidence in God’s presence is our comfort.
