Even When
We Feel Invisible Or Forgotten...God Sees Us
She answered God by name, praying to the
God who spoke to her, “You’re the God who sees me! [El
Roi] “Yes! He saw
me; and then I saw him!” (Genesis 16:13)
It's the only time we see God referred to by this name in the
Bible, which speaks to how profoundly intimate and personal the
encounter was. Here it was that Hagar, a mere maidservant, despised
and overwhelmed with despair, has an encounter with God that helps
her recognise that no matter how invisible or insignificant she may
be to the world, God still sees her.
Our guest this week, Ms. Joanna Hioe, has a
conversation with our host - Kareem O J Lee, about
her own intimate encounters with The God Who Sees Us. She
highlights how, just as in the days of Hagar, God is still touched
by our individual struggles, and intentionally comes alongside us
with care and compassion, even in the obscure
places.
Joanna Hioe is a creative from
Singapore, who has been uniquely crafted by the Creator. Having
experienced God's transforming love, she seeks to express His
wonders through words, songs, and videos. She is currently pursuing
a PhD focused on disaster management. She loves a good
adventure!
