Thereafter, Hagar referred to the Lord, who had spoken to her, as "the God who sees me".
I love that. The God who sees me.

This morning I was reading in Genesis 16....the story of what happens when Sarah and Abraham take matters into their own hands and decide to get Hagar pregnant so that Abraham can have a son. Hagar runs away after being mistreated by Sarah and is found by the angel of the Lord. The angel tells her some truths about who her son, Ishmael will be, and also tells her that "the Lord has heard about your misery".
I love that. The God who sees me.
