The God who sees me

Do you have someone in your life who “sees” you?  I mean, really sees you?  I’m convinced that if we do have such a person in our lives, then we merely have a glimpse of what our Heavenly Father offers us. You see, we all have these souls that need nourishment.  Being created that way, we confess that God is the only One who can detect everything our soul needs and then meet every one of those needs.  

In Genesis, we read of a woman who was so disregarded and unseen. This woman – Hagar – had been used, mistreated, and neglected.  As she runs away from her pain, she receives the grace of God when an angel reminds her of how precious she is – and the life of son.  Fully aware now of God’s affection, she cries out “You’re the God who sees me.  Truly I see the One who sees me.”  (Gen 16:13)   

May Hagar’s testimony encourage you to come before the Father with eagerness to be fully seen and known.  And there before Him, may you see and know Him.

Do you long to be seen by God?
    Do long to fix your eyes on Him…who sees you?
In being seen…are you ready to simply let Him take care of your soul in every way?  

This is the love he bestows upon us: 
    “not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an
     atoning sacrifice for our sins.” 1 John 4:10

You are seen. You are loved.
