When the poor and needy search for water and there is none, and their tongues are perched from thirst, then I, the Lord will answer them. I, the God of Israel will never abandon them. – Isaiah 41:17(NLT)
GOD NEVER ABANDONS
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you currently struggling with some challenges?
Don’t despair for the Lord never abandons his children
To those who are poor, needy and thirsty
He will comfort you so don’t get panicky.
When your tongues are perched from thirst
Seek and search for him and make him first
He will answer your call because he is merciful
He never abandons those who are faithful.

Dehydration is a condition that occurs when the loss of body fluids, mostly water, exceeds the amount that is taken in. With dehydration, more water is moving out of our cells and bodies than what we take in through drinking. We lose water every day in the form of water vapor in the breath we exhale and in our excreted sweat, urine, and stool. Along with the water, small amounts of salts are also lost. When we lose too much water, our bodies may become out of balance or dehydrated. Severe dehydration can lead to death.
Like water, we also need God in our lives. When we are spiritually dehydrated, we can lose sight of our purpose and feel desperate. The Lord never abandons those who are poor and needy.
PRAYER
Thank you for quenching my thirst my Lord.
REFLECTION
Have you ever felt abandoned? How did God aide you during those times?
