> Psalm 38:11 > “My friends and companions avoid me because of my wounds; my neighbors stay far away.” > Psalm 142:4 > “Look to my right and see: no one takes notice of me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my soul.” > Psalm 39:2-3 > “I was mute and silent, I held my peace to no avail, and my distress grew worse. My heart became hot within me. As I mused, the fire burned; then I spoke with my tongue.” > Jeremiah 20:9 > “But if I say, “I will not mention his word or speak anymore in his name,” his word is in my soul like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot.” > Matthew 13:57 (NIV): “But Jesus said to them, ‘A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home.’” > Luke 9:58 (NIV): “Jesus replied, ‘Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.’” > Matthew 26:40 (NIV): “Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. ‘Could you not keep watch with me for one hour?’” "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you." - John 15:18-19 > “He says to himself, ‘God will never notice; he covers his face and never sees.’”—Psalms 10:11 “Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.” (Isaiah 46:4, NIV) > “Answer me, Lord, out of the goodness of your love; in your great mercy turn to me. Do not hide your face from your servant; answer me quickly, for I am in distress. Come near and care for me; deliver me because of my pain. You know how I am scorned, disgraced and shamed; all my troubles are before you. Scorn has broken my heart and has left me helpless; I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found none.” — Psalm 69:17
