The God Who Sees Me

It is so easy to feel like an anonymous person in the middle of a crowd. Someone has said that the greatest loneliness we experience is when we are with lots of people but feel disconnected and unnoticed. The amazing fact is, God knows us, God is with us, God is watching us, and caring for us as individuals every moment of our lives.
There’s a story in the Bible of a day when Jesus was very busy and had lots of people crowding around Him. His friends had to be like ‘bodyguards around celebrities,’ as they tried to form a security barrier around Him. However, one woman, who had a medical condition for more than 12 years, was determined to get to Jesus and touch Him, even just his clothes, in order to receive healing for her condition. She was successful.

“Who touched me?” Jesus asked. When they all denied it, Peter said, “Master, the people are crowding and pressing against you.” But Jesus said, “Someone touched me; I know that power has gone out from me.” (Luke 8:45-46 NIV)
This woman was not just someone in the crowd who got healed. She was someone who had faith in Jesus and came to Him in her time of need. Even in this large crowd of seekers pushing in on Him, Jesus felt power go out of Him to this one person who had faith in Him for her healing.

The Lord hears his people when they call to him for help. He rescues them from all their troubles. (Psalm 34:17 NLT)
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I am so thankful that I do not live alone for You are always with me. You watch over me and all that I experience. You wait for me to reach out to You so You can bless me. I put my hope in Your Word. Help me to reach out to You in every situation I encounter so You can rescue me from all my troubles. Amen
