Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Para muchos bebés, sus primeros sonidos son "ab" "ab" "ba" "ba". No nos sorprende entonces que en los tiempos de Jesús, los bebes llamarán Abba a sus padres. Cuando Dios nos salva, nos da su Espíritu. El Espíritu Santo nos bendice de muchas maneras, pero una principal es que nos acompaña en nuestras oraciones. Intercede por nosotros cuando nos fallan las palabras (Romanos 8:26-27) y nos ayuda a acercarnos Dios como Padre, con plena confianza de llamarlo "Abba".
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
The first vocalizations of many babies are the syllables "ab-ba, ab-ba, ab-ba." Not surprisingly, in Jesus' day, abba was the tender name babies used for their physical fathers. When God saved us, he gave us his Spirit. The Holy Spirit blesses us in many ways. One of the key blessings is the Spirit's work with us in prayer. He intercedes for us when words can't express the emotions we have inside us (Romans 8:26-27). The Spirit helps us approach God with familiarity, dependency, and respect as we call God our Abba Father.
Mi oración
Abba Padre, gracias por amarme, salvarme e invitarme a entrar en Tu familia. Gracias por tu Espíritu Santo que en este momento me ayuda a compartir mis pensamientos, palabras y emociones contigo. Gracias Padre Amado por darme el poder de ser lo que quieres que sea. En el nombre de Jesús, Amen.
My Prayer...
Thank you, Abba Father, for loving us, saving us, and inviting us into your family. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for helping us share our thoughts, words, and emotions with the Father when words won't do — they are simply inadequate to express our emotions inside of us. Thank you, dear Abba Father, for giving us the power to be what you want us to be. Thank you, Jesus, for the Holy Spirit at work in me, validating me as God's beloved child. In Jesus' name, I thank and praise you. Amen.
