Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, 'Abba! Father!' Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God." (Galatians 4:6-7)Embracing God as "Abba, as "Daddy", transforms the dynamic of your relationship with Him. It becomes more personal, more intimate, and ultimately more fulfilling. Our hope is that you will recognize God not only as a Father, but as a loving "Daddy" who desires a close relationship with you. When you see Him this way, your spiritual life is enriched and your connection with Him deepens. It is amazing that the King of the universe is your Heavenly Father. Paul calls Him "Abba! Father", a term of endearment that connects you with Him as His own special child. More than that, He is you Heavenly "Daddy"! And Jesus said you must "become like a child" to enter the kingdom of Heaven. Unfortunately, those childlike characteristics Jesus is looking for in us are often lost as we get older. In his book, Like a Child, Jim Dixon explorers eight childlike characteristics, why we tend to let go of them, and how to reclaim them.
