El Roi — The God Who Sees (And What That Means For You)

from Faithful Fridays · host Bobbie Olivera

Most of us want to be seen.We want our pain seen.Our effort seen.Our intentions seen.But what happens when God sees everything… not just what we want Him to see?In this episode, we’re talking about El Roi — the God who sees.Not just a surface-level seeing…but a full, true, accurate seeing.Genesis 16 shows us something we don’t always think about:God didn’t just see Hagar’s pain…He saw Sarai’s heart.He saw Abraham’s passivity.He saw the motives behind it all.And if He sees them like that…He sees us the same way.This episode is a real and honest look at:​Feeling overlooked​Wanting to be seen by people​And learning to live like God sees everythingBecause pleasing God doesn’t start with performance…it starts with honesty.If you’ve ever felt unseen… or misunderstood…this one is for you.📌 Follow & Connect:📍 Facebook (Home of Faithful Fridays):Living Purposely — https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61586077333436📍 Instagram:Living With Bobbie — https://www.instagram.com/livingwithbobbie_onpurpose?igsh=dDNhZjl0M2s4d3g5&utm_source=qr🎧 Listen on:Spotify | Apple Podcasts | Amazon Music | iHeartRadioApple Podcasts — Faithful FridaysSpotify — https://open.spotify.com/show/1aquqQhPByBcGpWuAIubRN?si=aQ2-jLbBTsmMdxGOOLySiwAmazon Music — https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/133357cb-b50e-48de-b6bb-89c15e95579a/faithful-fridays?ref=dm_sh_aSWMVdfbhVuJ7i1JIogDQa0pTIHeart Radio — https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-faithful-fridays-329025504?cmp=ios_share&sc=ios_social_share&pr=false&autoplay=true🎙️ Shoutout:Check out Ground And Truth for solid, biblical teaching for the men in your life.Ground And Truth Podcast — https://youtube.com/@groundandtruth?si=F4WXC3Y4RxkelwYVGround And Truth Facebook Page — https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575352629358#faithfulfridays #elroi #godseesyou #christianpodcast #bibletalk #obedience #heartcheck #knowgod #biblestudy #christianwomen #biblicaltruth #faithoverfeelings
