The Power of Being Known

To Be Seen. To Be Known.

Listening to someone’s heart, their unique story, is such a privilege. It’s powerful. The human spirit longs to be heard, to be known.

So many around us feel invisible—the homeless person we avoid eye contact with, the checkout girl working two jobs just to survive, the young Haitian girl, Sandra, whose life was marked by tragedy and deep trauma.

When we first met Sandra, she wouldn’t look up. Her eyes stayed fixed on the ground. But love changes everything.

She was welcomed into a church community that provided for her, prayed over her, and showed her the love of Christ. Now, her smile tells a different story—one of redemption, healing, and the forgiveness freely offered by our loving God.

Each of us carries that same longing—to be seen, known, and understood. And the good news?

“The LORD hears his people when they call to him for help.

He rescues them from all their troubles.

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted;

he rescues those whose spirits are crushed..”

Psalm 34:17-18
