Psalm 22:1-31 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?… Sometimes God takes away from a Christian His comforting presence, but never His sustaining presence. You know the difference between sunshine and daylight. We have often daylight but little sunlight. A Christian has Gods daylight in his soul when he may not have sunlight; that is, he has enough to light him, but not enough to cheer and comfort him. Never was Jesus so forsaken as when He cried, My God, My God, etc., and yet was He never so strengthened by God's sustaining presence, for angels were at His service to minister to Him if He needed their ministry. (J. Cumming.)
