God Sees Us
Thou God seest me, Thou God of Vision. Those words were spoken by Hagar, who had been utterly discouraged but now was encouraged. Sarah had been very unkind to her, but the angel of the Lord did not say to her, “Poor Hagar!” The sympathy of the Lord our God is never weakening; it is bracing. Hagar had run away, so the angel said, "Return." God’s love is always brave love. He never says “Give way”; He always says “Return.”
He said more. Perhaps Hagar had thought He did not care much about her. He cared for Sarah, of course, but she was only Hagar. So the angel put her right about that and told her how the Lord would bless her because He had seen and heard her affliction.
Awed and heartened, Hagar called the name of the Lord: "Thou God seest me, Thou God of Vision." The well nearby was named “The well of Him that liveth and seeth me, the well of the life of vision.”
Thank God for that well in the wilderness. If we are discouraged or tired or hurt today, one long drink from that well will give us new life, new courage, and new patience to go on running the race set before us—even to the end.
