Sees me!

 Today we start worship with:

So she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, “You are a God of seeing,” for she said, “Truly here I have seen him who looks after me.”

The focus of this verse is not Sarah's incredible opportunity to see God.  But rather it is the fact that the God of the universe saw her.

At work, you meet with your boss periodically.  You may meet with their boss once in a while.  Their boss probably does not know your name, but may have seen it on a report.

Imagine the God of the universe not only knowing your name, but being concerned about your condition!  This was so incredible, Sarah named the spring they were encamped beside:

Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; it lies between Kadesh and Bered.

Beer-lahai-roi means the well of the Living One who sees me.
