Father Never Leaves Me

5 Scriptures for When You Feel Abandoned

 

There are seasons in life when we feel forgotten, overlooked, or abandoned. Loss, rejection, grief, or unanswered prayers can make us wonder if God has turned His face away.

 

I’ve been there — standing in sorrow so heavy that I asked, “Lord, where are You?” But time and again, God reminded me through His Word that He is closer than my feelings, nearer than my fears, and faithful to His promise: “I will never leave you.”

 

If you are walking through that kind of season, here are five Scriptures that carried me, and I pray they carry you too.

 

1. Deuteronomy 31:6

 

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

 

Even when life feels unstable, God’s presence is unshakable. He goes with you into every battle and every valley.

 

2. Psalm 34:18

 

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

 

God doesn’t run from brokenness — He draws near to it. Your tears are not wasted; they are invitations for His nearness.

 

3. Isaiah 41:10

 

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

 

God’s hand is strong enough to hold you when you feel too weak to stand.

 

4. John 14:18

 

“I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.”

 

Jesus made a personal promise: you are not forgotten, not fatherless, and never forsaken. His Spirit lives in you.

 

5. Hebrews 13:5

 

“Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”

 

This verse is not just a verse — it is the heartbeat of God’s love for us. His presence is constant, His faithfulness unchanging.

 

Encouragement for You

 

If you feel abandoned, hold these verses close. Read them aloud. Pray them back to God. Remind yourself that your feelings are real, but they are not final. God’s promises are greater.

 

Final Word

 

When I felt most alone — after losing my brother, after burying my mother, after nearly drowning three times — these Scriptures reminded me that the Father never leaves His children.

 

That’s why I wrote Father Never Leaves Me. It’s not just my testimony, it’s a message of hope for anyone who feels abandoned.
