Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?

Saturday April 15th, Mark 15:33-34: And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?"--which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" There are times when we feel alone and abandoned. On the cross, Christ faced the total abandonment of our sin. When did you last feel alone? Abandoned? Christ understands. Often when we feel most alone, it is not the God is absent, but rather that we are in such a hole that all we can see is darkness. Find a copy of the poem footsteps, read it, remember your alone time and know that God was with you then and will be with you in your next alone time.
