From noon on, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. 46And about three o’clock Jesus cried with a loud voice, ‘Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?’ that is, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’ –Matthew 27:45-46
What does it mean for our lives that Jesus felt forsaken?
God, sometimes we feel forsaken–as though you have abandoned us. In those times, remind us that Jesus knows what we feel. Amen.
