Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “ Abba, Father.”
We are God's sons and daughters. We have a relationship with him. The Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity lives in our hearts.
We hear these words over and over and it is good to know that God cares about us collectively but Paul took it one step further when he declared that the Spirit who lives in our hearts calls God a very personal name. Abba Father.
This title speaks to personal intimacy. I know the person I call Abba. I have a relationship with my Abba. My Abba loves me. When I call God Abba Father I am saying, 'he is my papa, my daddy'
May we continue to seek a personal relationship with our Abba Father.
