The Character of Abba Father’s Heart – Abba’s Joy
I love the Hebrew word for “rejoice”, it means to spin around violently with great joy. You make your Father dance! I can share with each of you who trust in your Abba Father, that He is crazy about you. So much so that He dances and sings over you with great joy. You are “Abba’s Joy!” and He is never going to let you go.

Guest Post – Rest in the Father
What is the Lord calling you to? What are your “deeper waters”? Close your eyes, do you see Him? Run into His arms, He won’t deny you, He will catch you, you can trust Him, and He will give you rest.
