It's tough to be a parent--to teach and train the child you love; to discipline and disciple him in the ways of the Lord. Sometimes it seems that's all we do--and sometimes it seems that's all the LORD does too...but not so! There's another side to our Heavenly Father where sometimes we just need to run--a place where "Abba" (Aramaic affectionate term for Father or Daddy), can hold us in His loving arms, a place where no words are necessary--just His arms!Arms that are everlastingly safe--safe enough so nothing can touch me that is outside of His Will. Arms that are everlastingly secure--secure enough to never let me go--and arms that are everlastingly strong--strong enough to handle any burden I am carrying this day.
When earthly arms fail us--and sometimes they do--know that the everlasting arms of our Heavenly Father will always be faithful and true, ever there to give us comfort, strength and love. And so we cry, "Abba, Father," as we run to our Refuge today with all our disappointments, distresses and disillusionment, with all our fears, frustrations and failures--but, above all, with ourselves, wholly and completely yielding to His tender, healing touch.
Is this devotional for you today? He's faithful, and He laid it on my heart for someone in our world today. So receive it, whoever you may be--run to "Abba" today and rest in His arms. They're outstretched waiting for you--believe it, receive it--and have a wonderful day!
Delight in a Word from the Well--a refreshing in the Water of His Word
"The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms...(Deuteronomy 33:27)."
Draw from the Well--a prayer for renewing strength for this day
PRAYER: "Abba, Father, hold me! I need nothing more than to feel Your loving arms enfolding me. I need Your touch today, Lord, telling me everything is going to be all right--that You'll never let me go, that I'm safe and secure in Your loving arms, that YOU are in control. That's all I need to know--thank You, Father, In Jesus' Name, Amen."
