Genesis 16:13
“You are the God who sees me.”
Have you ever walked into a room full of people and felt like nobody even noticed you were there? Hagar knew that feeling in a much deeper way. She was a servant, a foreigner, and now she was alone in the wilderness.
People often notice position. God notices people. Others saw a servant. God saw Hagar.
There is a difference between being alone and being unseen. Hagar was alone, but she was never outside God’s sight.
Jesus said that God notices even the sparrows and knows the number of hairs on our heads (Luke 12:6-7). Think about that. The God who sees billions of people still sees you.
You may sometimes feel overlooked, but you are never unseen.
Prayer: Father, when I feel unnoticed and alone, remind me that You always see and care for me.
