Leviticus 26:1-46; Psalm 140:1-141:10; Mark 10:32-52
There is none to help. Psalm 22:11
In a time of trial, God’s children have often stood alone. Their only comfort has been that God was near, a shelter in the storm. But not so at Calvary. Before our Lord’s crucifixion, Judas betrayed Him, Peter denied Him, and the disciples forsook Him. However, when the Saviour hung upon the cross and darkness fell, a poignant cry was heard that went unanswered: “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” (Mark 15:34). This must have been the heaviest stroke of all. He was abandoned and totally alone. May we never forget all that He endured on our account. —Clark Logan
Alone, alone, He bore it all alone;
He gave Himself to save His own,
He suffered, bled and died alone, alone. —Ben H. Price
