When you\u2019re waiting, waiting, waiting, for God to show up, you can grow weary, frustrated, and maybe even a little cranky. After all, you need help. You\u2019ve prayed and prayed, and still you wonder if you\u2019re bring ignored. It\u2019s not always easy to understand those times, but maybe it helps to consider a key moment when the Bible illustrates this point more clearly. Consider the story of a woman named Hagar. Her name may not come with instant recognition for you, but her story may illuminate the way you perceive the things of God. Hagar was a handmade to Sarai, Abram\u2019s wife. When Sarai couldn\u2019t conceive, she gave her handmaid to Abram to be his wife so that Sarai might have children through her and build a family. Of course, nothing went quite as Sarai had hoped and as soon as Hagar was pregnant, she began to make Sarai miserable, only increasing Sarai\u2019s suffering over being childless. Eventually, the two women were so mean to one another, Hagar finally ran away. She ran into the desert to consider what to do next.<\/p>\n
Guess what? The angel of God showed up! Speaking for God, the angel called Hagar by name. He knew who she was. He knew she was pregnant. He knew her story. How? Because that\u2019s God\u2019s story. He knows our troubles, our conflicts, our stories and He knows when we need Him to show up. Hagar responded to the angel by saying, \u201cYou are the God who sees me. I have now seen the one who sees me.\u201d What an amazing encounter? Hagar was not just a servant in the house of Abram. She was known. She was cared for and God had a plan for her life. Her son, Ishmael would be the older brother of Isaac and both would play important roles in God\u2019s plans for Israel. Once Hagar felt acknowledged and understood, she went back home.<\/p>\n
The thing to consider is this. If you\u2019re waiting for something, a new job, financial relief, some kind of breakthrough, you\u2019re not waiting for God to finally discover you need Him. You\u2019re not waiting for Him to show you favor or look your way. He\u2019s already looking. He knows you by name just as surely as He knew the name of Hagar. He sees the trouble you are in and it\u2019s not too hard for Him to help you. In fact, He\u2019s already at work on the answer, even if you can\u2019t yet see what the answer might be.<\/p>\n
You are not resigned to waiting. You are not drifting along alone and forgotten. You are seen, known, and in good hands. Keep watching because God has already shown up and has begun the work that will make a difference. Like Hagar, you can pray and lift your hands to the One who sees you right now, the One who is with you always.<\/p>\n
