Don’t Run Away

The Life of Abraham: Living Out God’s Story | Wronged to Right
Bible Reference: Genesis 16:6-16

Day 23 | Wronged to Right - Don’t Run Away

“It is healthy to process through your emotional hurt and trauma with God. ”

Gen 16:6 
Abram replied to Sarai, “Here, your slave is in your power; do whatever you want with her.” Then Sarai mistreated her so much that she ran away from her.

It is easy to run away when unjust suffering occurs in our lives. Like in Hagar’s case, your feelings and experiences may all be valid, such that God would come minister to her.  

It is healthy to process through your emotional hurt and trauma with God. The psalms are filled with emotional cries of heartache and sufferings. Are you brokenhearted and crushed in spirit? God is near you.

Psalm 34:18
The LORD is near the brokenhearted; He saves those crushed in spirit.
