“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!” Isaiah 49:15
You may feel like that God is preoccupied with other more important matters than to be concerned with whats going on in your life. But the scripture above teaches us the correct truth. God said it would be more likely for a mother nursing her child to forget her child than for Him to forget one of His children. The mother becomes so preoccupied with other things that she neglects the needs of her child?
God is teaching us in this scripture that He is more sensitive to the needs of His children than a mother with an infant. It is a comforting thing to know that God will never forget us.
Don’t let the difficult circumstances you are facing convince you that God has forgotten you. Don’t assume that God is more interested in someone else's needs than yours. God looks upon you with the same love and concern as a nursing mother. Hopefully it reassures you to know that your Heavenly father loves you like that.
God Bless, Pastor Rick
