   • God Hears and Sees Us. We all are born into this world with a relational need to have our caregiver hear and see us; to be in tune with us, our needs, and what we are experiencing.
   • God Provides. The first time that Hagar encounters the angel of the Lord in the desert, she is by a spring of water. But the second time she is in the desert, to her knowledge, there is no water to be found.
