This article is an encouragement, confirmation and revelation. God is not a respecter of persons. To God Sarah is no greater than Hagar. Hagar did get to see God's love for her. The one time that Sarah did hear from God because she would be blessed, she laughed at Him. God puts up with a lot from us yet He loves us all. Man would rather let Hagar be the outcast because she was in the less acceptable situation. God was her deliverance. Perhaps we have to figure out how to wait for God to deliver people including our children from their circumstances. Perhaps we could just listen to what He tells us to do first and not do our own thing to make circumstances what we think they should be . We can rest assure that God can deliver someone without us yet our lives would be much more pleasing to God if we could love each other through, not take it personal and realize that we sometimes make our own situations bad. When we have done all we can for someone then maybe we do have to turn things over to God (letting the person go on by themselves with God) but how we do it is critical and our part in their circumstance is just as critical. We must choose wisely (using Godly wisdom) for ourselves and for others. What we do for our children and others today will greatly impact their lives tomorrow.
