Holy, all powerful , all knowing, merciful, loving, righteous, faithful, glorious, perfect. etc. i stand in awe. to speak everything into being- wow. to be so Holy no one can look upon Him and live- wow. to know from everlasting to ever lasting wow. to love to the point of becoming flesh and suffer wow. when i cry out Abba it is with the heart of love of a child in reckless abandonement who has been flooded by His love and is responding to His overwhelming grace. ( even more in awe as david said "who am i") love your sister in Christ, Rebekah David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father!" and in Romans 8:15. There has to be a reason. I would think Abba shows more of sonship... I will look this up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Framed by the lips of infants betokens unreasoning trust. Fatherexpresses an intelligent apprehension of the relationship by the child. The two together expresses the love and intelligent confidence of the child. So I guess we are all right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
