Just Like Him..

The relationship between us and our Heavenly Father, Abba Father, 

Here is the link to the song that gave me the inspiration for today's blog. I hope the song blesses you.

I know many of you were not blessed with a godly, honorable father. I was blessed from the moment of conception. My dad was my hero. I remember walking hand in hand with him at our county fair, thinking how proud I was to have him as my Daddy. 

We have a heavenly Father Who loves us even more than my Daddy loved me. We can call Him Abba Father, (Daddy) He wants us to have that special relationship. He wants us to be proud to walk with Him. Take a moment and listen to this song that honors my earthly dad. Even though he went home to Abba Father in December, 1996, his love was and still is felt down through the generations. This song is written and sung by his grandson. 

And even if your earthly dad didn't or doesn't stack up, know that you, through Yeshua, can experience that special bond with Abba Father.

Abba, Father; Daddy.

Romans 8:15 "You haven’t received the spirit of slaves that leads you into fear again. Instead, you have received the spirit of God’s adopted children by which we call out, “Abba! Father!”

I was blessed with an amazing Father figure growing up. Many people were not, my husband among the latter. 
Yesterday during our study, a question was asked. I am going to share my husband's response.   It both broke my heart and warmed it at the same time.
The question was "When was the first time you recognised God as your Abba, Father,  your Daddy?"
My husbabd said it was a few days after my dad, (his father-in-law) died. He told me he felt God taking his hand literaly and pulling him into His arms and hugging him, telling him that He would now be his Dad. I shared a similar experience, as did a couple of our children. My dad had been such a tremendous father, father figure in all our lives. One of the sweet things I remember about my dad was that he did not call my sister-in-law Angie by her name, he called her "Daughter". He called my husband "Son". My husband did not have a father-son relationship until we married. That bond my dad made with him, was so special. It filled a void. Once dad was gone, God stepped in and refilled that void for him.  Whether you still have an earthy father, and have a great relationship, or if you have not been privileged to have an earthly daddy, or if your dad is no longer there for you, you have the privilage of having an even better relationship with our Heavenly Father.  If you have accepted Yeshua;  Jesus as your Savior, and turned your life over to Him, then you have been automatically adopted into His family as His son or daughter. He loves you, and He wants you to call Him Abba Father, Daddy. I invite you to get to know God in a very special and intimate way. Get to know our AbbaFather.
