[bjmartens]

I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.

Jonah 2:4

---------------

Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me. Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.

Isaiah 49:14-15

---------------

I forgat prosperity. And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD. ~~~ Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever. ~~~ Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God? ~~~ In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

Lamentations 3:17-18
Psalms 44:23
Isaiah 40:27
Isaiah 54:8

---------------

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God. ~~~ We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.

Psalms 43:5
2 Corinthians 4:8-9
