Thought for Today: “God Sees”

Life more often than not seems like a struggle. But no matter what sort of struggle and difficulty we’re facing as we’re lost in a sea of doubt and despair, God sees and cares.

After feeling cast out, lonely, and rejected and basically out of hope, Hagar ran into the desert ready to die. But God sent and angel who said to her that the Lord heard her cry.

“The Lord has heard of your misery.” (Genesis 16:11a)

And so, she gave to God the name, El Roi, “The God who sees.” (Genesis 16:13)

Don’t even think that God doesn’t see or care. He sees and hears your cries, you are not alone, and the Lord will work on your behalf.

“Know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28)
