Have you ever felt like no one understand what you are walking through? 

Have you thought to yourself, No one sees me! I’m all alone! 

There is an amazing story in the Book of Genesis about a man named Abram, his wife Sarai, and the people who make up their story. But there is one person who gets mistreated that we rarely talk about. Her name was Hagar. 

She faithfully served Abram and Sarai. And one day, she became the surrogate mother to the promised family line of Abram. But Sarai despised her for this. So she mistreated and abused Hagar. 

Unable to take any more, Hagar took off and ran into the desert. 

But an angel of the Lord met her there. 

Listen to Genesis 16:8- Hagar, slave of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?” 

“I’m running away from my mistress Sarai,” She answered. 

Then the angel of the Lord delivers her a message about how she will be blessed and how she will have a child who will be blessed. But she has to go back. 

The promise seems so good that Hagar says this in vs 13, “you are the God who sees me,” For she said, “I have now seen the One who sees me.”
