My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? | Sermon Only | Rev. Dr. Thomasina Jones

About this sermon

In this powerful sermon, Rev. Dr. Thomasina Jones explores the profound moment when Jesus cried out, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" from Matthew 27:46. Drawing from the expression "left to the wolves," she addresses the feelings of abandonment we face during life's trials—catastrophes, betrayal, loss, or illness. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, teaches us three vital lessons: it’s okay to ask God questions, our knowledge of God must overrule our feelings, and we are never alone because we have a Shepherd who protects and redeems us. Through scripture and real-life examples, Rev. Jones encourages us to trust in God's sovereignty and find comfort in Jesus, who laid down His life for us. **Topic:** Abandonment **Bible Verses:** - Matthew 27:46 – "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" - Psalm 22:1 – "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" - John 10:11 – "I am the good shepherd.
