"Abba Father"

Growing up I never knew my father. Daughter of a drug addict and born to a mother who didn't know how to nurture,love, and protect. I was left to figure life out on my own. Sure I had all my physical needs met but without the love it meant nothing.

Today I now seek to know the Lord as a father. The longing that I didn't know was there, the void that could not be filled, the emptiness I feel inside is all for a little girl who had no parent to delight in her.
Never raised by a father...
Never received a mothers attention...
BUT ALWAYS LOVED BY GOD!
He has adopted me, chosen me, and is raising me up as His own. I don't even know what that looks like exactly but I know that His word says He delights in me and loves me with an everlasting love.

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." ~ Romans 8:14,15
