Daddy!

In Mark 14:36, Jesus addresses God as
Abba, an Aramaic familiar form of
Father, akin to our “papa” or “daddy.”

In Romans 8:15, Paul tells us that
As adopted children we are to approach
The Father in like manner.

How awesome is this:
That we dare approach the very
Power of the universe,
Sit upon His knee,
And call Him “Daddy!”
