How do we find contentment in God when we feel so hidden? Sara
Hagerty unfolds the truths found in the biblical story of Mary of
Bethany to discover the scandalous love of God and explore the
spiritual richness of being hidden in him. Every heart longs to be
seen and understood. Yet most of our lives is unwitnessed. We spend
our days working, driving, parenting. We sometimes spend whole
seasons feeling unnoticed and unappreciated. In Unseen, Sara
Hagerty suggests that this is exactly what God intended. He is the
only One who truly knows us. He is the only One who understands the
value of the unseen in our lives. When this truth seeps into our
souls, we realize that only when we hide ourselves in God can we
give ourselves to others in true freedom--and know the joy of a
deeper relationship with the God who sees us. Our culture applauds
what we can produce, what we can show, what we can upload to social
media. Only when we give all of ourselves to God--unedited,
abandoned, apparently wasteful in its lack of productivity--can we
live out who God created us to be. As Hagerty writes, "Maybe my
seemingly unproductive, looking-up-at-Him life produces awe among
the angels." Through an eloquent exploration of both personal and
biblical story, Hagerty calls us to offer every unseen minute of
our lives to God. God is in the secret places of our lives that no
one else witnesses. But we've not been relegated to these places.
We've been invited. We may be "wasting" ourselves in a hidden
corner today: The cubicle on the fourth floor. The hospital bedside
of an elderly parent. The laundry room. But these are the places
God uses to meet us with a radical love. These are the places that
produce the kind of unhinged love in us that gives everything at
His feet, whether or not anyone else ever proclaims our name,
whether or not anyone else ever sees. God's invitation is not just
for a season or a day. It is the question of our lives: "When no
one else applauds you, when it makes no sense, when you see no
results--will you waste your love on Me?"
