How do I know God?

In any relationship, the name of the other person is very important, too.

How we call that person is an indicator of how we feel about that person.

Is there anger or affection. Is there familiarity and intimacy.

When we think of a relationship with God, what do we call him?

God.

Father

Almighty.

Are we close enough to him to call him Abba Father?

Abba is a form of little children addressing their father as Papa or Daddy.

It is not something that most will favor because of His position as Creator.

It shows a closeness that goes deeper nearer than anything ever can.

It is a position of love and security.

Nothing hits God by surprise. He knows the end from the beginning. We are like grasshoppers before him , yet he has compassion towards us. His loving kindness is for now and forever.

When we feel afraid, thrown into the deep without a life jacket, we must remember he is the rock of our salvation.

Fear not just whisper his name. He is the Deliver.

Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

Psalm 123 verse 2

For The Moment…121

We should not limit God. He is the same God who called into existence those things that did not exist.

There is no limit to his power and no measuring his love.

When we ask, we need to sit back and let him take control. He will do great things and different things you never thought about.

He is infinite.

Call unto me, and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.  The Lord is his name.

Adapted from Jeremiah 33 3 and 2 b.

For The Moment…49

God’ s love and kindness are from everlasting to everlasting.

There is no limit to his mercy and faithfulness. They are true all day long.

Great is my God, and greatly should He be praised forever.

(Psalm 36 verse 5)

Fear Not: God Has This

Don’t be afraid when things get overwhelming.

Yet To Be # 243

Don’t be afraid when things get overwhelming.
God is not a halfway God; what He promises, He will fulfill.
There is no adding to it or taking away from it.
His ways are mysterious and sure.
When we fall on our knees to pray for help and strength,
God immediately goes to work.
We have only to stop, believe and see the power of His loving kindness.
