The God Who Sees
Her name was Hagar. You can find her story in Genesis 16. Fleeing from a life that she thought was intolerable, she was on her way to a place called Shure. But she was not sure of anything until the Angel of the Lord found her sitting by a spring of water in the wilderness. God spoke to her there, giving her instruction, comfort, and hope. Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, You-Are-the-God-Who-Sees.
The God Who Sees Your Worship
Our lives should be guided by this principle, “The God who made all things is the God- Who-Sees.” Children of God are the light of the world. But the only light we have is the reflected Glory of God. Give to be seen by God. Pray to be heard by God. Let your worship be from your heart to the great heart of God. The more He sees in you, the brighter your light will shine into the world.
The God Who Sees Your Broken Heart
Sometimes, like Hagar, we may think that life is unbearable. But we must never forget that He is The God-Who-Sees. When life is intolerable and unsure, He will bring clarity to your soul. With artistry that can only come from the Creator, your broken heart and shattered dreams will be remade into a beautiful mosaic.
The God Who Sees Your Beauty
Maybe you are sitting in your wilderness asking God, “Why?” Possibly, the answer is as simple as this: you were created for the Glory of God. The God Who Sees can take the broken pieces of your life and create a montage of grace. And maybe, just maybe, today, someone needs to see the reflection of His Glory as it shines through the mosaic of your life.
“Then the Angel of the Lord said to her, “I will multiply your descendants exceedingly, so that they shall not be counted for multitude.” And the Angel of the Lord said to her: “Behold, you are with child, And you shall bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, Because the Lord has heard your affliction. He shall be a wild man; His hand shall be against every man, And every man’s hand against him. And he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.” Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, You-Are-the-God-Who-Sees; for she said, “Have I also here seen Him who sees me?””
