You Do See Me
You are the God who sees me. Genesis 16:13
There are more times then not that I feel as though God does not see me, know me or wants anything to do with me. The areas in my life that make me life this way are guilt, insecurity and desperation. It seems that the times that I struggle with this problem is when I am going through a difficult situation.
Hagar was a woman who was in a difficult situation. She had just been kicked out of Abraham’s camp by his other wife Sarah. She had no where to go and nothing to eat. As she ran away she cried out to God. To her amazement God had met her in her deepest time of despair.
During this time of fasting you may be questioning the purpose of this 21 day journey. You may also be wondering does God even see me or care what I am doing? The answer is simply “yes.” God sees you and knows every moment of your day. It says in Psalms that he knows when you go to bed and when you wake up.
Hold onto the truth of Scripture that God sees you just as clearly as he saw Hagar in her deep place of desperation.
