GENESIS 16:9-13
Hagar, God Sees You!
“The angel of God said, “Go back to your mistress. Put up with her abuse.” He continued, “I’m going to give you a big family, children past counting. From this pregnancy, you’ll get a son: Name him Ishmael; for God heard you, God answered you. He’ll be a bucking bronco of a man, a real fighter, fighting and being fought, Always stirring up trouble, always at odds with his family.” She answered God by name, praying to the God who spoke to her, “You’re the God who sees me! “Yes! He saw me; and then I saw him!” Genesis 16:9-13 MSG
Just as the Lord God saw Hagar, He sees you too, my Sister.
Straight from the pages of Genesis, the very first book of the Bible, we are introduced to the incredible story of Abraham, the Father of all Nations, and his wife Sarah, who faced the heartbreaking challenge of infertility. In this remarkable tale, we witness the boundless love and care that Almighty God has for each and every one of us, as He sees us all, no matter our circumstances.
Now, let's delve into the captivating character of Hagar. Hagar, a young Egyptian slave girl, found herself in an extraordinary situation. She was given to marry and bear a child for her mistress Sarah's husband, who happened to be nearly a century old! Can you imagine? Despite the odds, Hagar became pregnant, and with this newfound ability, she began to see herself as not just equal, but even superior to Sarah. This understandably stirred up intense emotions within Sarah, leading her to mistreat Hagar to the point where she felt compelled to flee from her oppressive situation.
But here's where the story takes a beautiful turn. Even in the midst of Hagar's fear, tears, and pain, God saw her. He cared for her. And most importantly, He provided for her. Just as the Lord God saw Hagar, He sees you too, my Sister.
That's why Hagar, God Sees You exists. It is an extension of B|Well Biblical SOULCARE, with a singular purpose: to serve, encourage, empower, and minister to God's precious daughters who find themselves as unwed mothers or victims of the horrific crime of sex trafficking.
We are here to remind you that you are seen, loved, and cherished by the Almighty, who will provide for you in ways you may not even imagine.
So, let us walk alongside you on this journey, offering support, guidance, and a listening ear.
Sadly, the world has glamorized being a teen and/or unwed mother. However, there is nothing glamorous about it. The internal pain, isolation and heartache that can come along with being a teen/single mom is REAL and far from being glamorous.
Women of all ages that are lacking the Biblical understanding and lacking the support needed to thrive under these circumstances end up facing many preventable hardships leaving lasting scars on their souls, the souls of their children, the soul of the community, and the soul of society. When those emotional scars go unaddressed, the negative behavior patterns continue.
By the grace of Almighty God, that is where B|WELL Biblical SoulCare Outreach Ministry comes in through ministering God’s message of love, help, hope, healing, forgiveness, grace, and mercy and ultimately salvation to the souls of God’s daughters.
Together, we will navigate the challenges, heal the wounds, and discover the incredible strength and resilience that lies within you. Remember, just as God saw Hagar, He sees you too.
