Have you felt invisible? Unseen by others and by God? There are many stories in the Bible and the lives of believers today who have experienced this dark, lonely, and silent place. Yet, there is hope. They testify that soon, the darkness will be shattered by light, loneliness replaced with relationship, and silence turns to song. This collection of stories, poems, devotions, and essays will remind you that you are not alone and, most importantly, you are seen by El Roi—the God who sees.

Lisa Meiners is a contributing author to “El Roi” with her chapter: “My Marker Moment.”

May you find each chapter encouraging and uplifting as you remember who God is.
