Have you ever felt discarded, rejected, or utterly forgotten? The story of Hagar speaks directly to that experience with a message of hope. Hagar's journey from rejected slave to personally encountered by God reveals a powerful truth: when the world walks away, God comes looking. He sees your tears, hears your prayers, and knows your name.

Her story reminds us that often our deepest encounters with God happen not in our moments of triumph, but in our experiences of abandonment and despair.
