Seen, Known, and Still Chosen — Sister Haden
Today Sister Haden brings a clear, honest word for anyone who's ever felt ashamed, overlooked, disqualified, or invisible. We walk through two powerful Bible moments to show how Jesus sees us and still calls us.
• Jesus saw Nathanael before he believed — a private, fig tree moment of doubt and searching (John 1:45–50).
• Jesus looked at Peter after his failure — not to condemn, but to restore and recommission him (Luke 22:54–62; John 21:15–17).
This message reminds us that God chooses differently than the world. Even in our doubt, failure, or hidden struggles, He sees us, knows us, and still chooses us for His purpose. Failure isn't final. Restoration is real. Our calling doesn't vanish because we stumbled.
Key verse:
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8 KJV
If you need prayer or want to remember your fig tree moment, come forward after the message. Let’s pray together and remember where the Lord has brought us from.
