Devotion:
Read Genesis 21:14-21.
God had compassion on Hagar and Ishmael and provided for both of them. God had not forgotten Ishmael. Although he was not to be Abraham’s heir, he would also be the father of a great nation. Ishmael and Hagar were thrust into circumstances beyond their control. Have you ever felt that way? We may not be in a position to change circumstances but we do have control over how we respond. God is working whether we can see it or not. Just know that regardless of your circumstances, God has not forgotten you. Obey him and trust in his plan. Even when we don’t know how God will act, we must trust that he watches over us and will meet our needs.
Personal Worship Option:
Reflect on God’s faithfulness. God always keeps his promises. What promises do you need to be reminded of today?
