Do You Feel the Closeness of God?
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.’ The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”
ROMANS 8:14-17

Ponder This
How much does God love His Son Jesus? Does He love Jesus more than He loves you? That’s not what this says. You may say, “No, I can’t take that in,” but it is true. There is nothing you can do to make God love you any more than He loves you. He loves you as much as He loves His own dear Son.

We are the sons and the daughters of God. Jesus is the first-born Son, but He’s just the first-born in a family of many brothers and sisters. We are brothers and sisters of Jesus—sons of God, literally. Do you know what “Abba Father” means? Our equivalent would be the name, “Daddy.” It blesses me when my children call me daddy instead of father because it reminds me of our closeness. Likewise, we can speak to God and call Him: Abba Father. Because I’m a son of God and Jesus Christ is my brother, I have my Father’s care, and I’m not a beggar. My Father pledged to take care of me, and He will.
