“Abba” is the Hebrew word for Father. God is our ever loving Abba, Father. We should remember that in all that we do, we are representing God, since we are his children. So we should let our light and goodness shine, such that when others see, they will praise and glorify God, our Father.

Romans 8:15-17 “This resurrection life you received from God is not a timid, grave-tending life. It’s adventurously expectant, greeting God with a childlike “What’s next, Papa?” God’s Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are. We know who he is, and we know who we are: Father and children. And we know we are going to get what’s coming to us—an unbelievable inheritance! We go through exactly what Christ goes through. If we go through the hard times with him, then we’re certainly going to go through the good times with him! ” (The Message)
Matthew 5:16 “In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” (NIV)
