But often this feeling of abandonment or estrangement from God has nothing to do with sin. It is a test of faith-one we all must face: Will you continue to love, trust, obey, and worship God, even when you have no sense of his presence or visible evidence of his work in your life?

然而，尽管这种被神抛弃和疏离的感觉往往与罪扯上关系，但它其实是我们都必须面对的信心考验：即使当你无法感觉他的同在，生命中没看见他作为的时候，你仍会继续爱神，信靠他、顺服他，并且敬拜他吗？
