Genesis 16: Kids

God Sees You and He Cares

Genesis 16:13 - "Thereafter, Hagar used another name to refer to the LORD, who had spoken to her. She said, 'You are the God who sees me.'"

Howdy, young explorers! We're journeying into Genesis 16 today. This chapter tells us about a woman named Hagar. She was having a really hard time because people weren't treating her kindly. So, she ran away to the desert.

Can you imagine being all alone in a desert? It would be really scary, right? But guess what? God saw Hagar. He came and talked to her. He didn't ignore her or leave her all alone. He saw her and cared for her.

Sometimes, you might feel like Hagar. You might feel left out at school, or maybe you feel like nobody understands you. But remember, just like He did with Hagar, God sees you too!

God is like your best friend who's always there, no matter what. You're never invisible to Him. You're super special and very important to God. He sees you, and He cares about every little thing that's happening in your life.

So the next time you feel alone or misunderstood, remember Hagar's story. And remember that God sees you and He cares about you just as much as He cared about Hagar. You are never alone with God on your side!
