You are not alone. Lent Devotional Series - Final Sayings of Jesus, Part 4: My God, My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me?
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer, by night, but I find no rest. Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One; you are the one Israel praises. In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them. To you they cried out and were saved; in you they trusted and were not put to shame. (Psalm 22:2-5)
At noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. And at three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”). (Mark 15:33-34)
so i set my eyes like stone
and i lift up my chin
and i pick up all my bones
and breathe life in again
and i build my house on stone
and i make straight my frame
i will not be knocked down
when the winds come again
