So the fact that its the first "I am" statement is priceless...
"For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by Him we cry 'Abba, Father.'"
Romans 8:15-16
AHH!!!
First off He has blessed us with the "Spirit of sonship" we no longer have to be fearful. He is there protecting us just like my earthly father would do for me but to the 100000000th power. He is always with us, loving us, encouraging us, and calling us sons and daughters of his kingdom!!
Second..."Abba"
this word gives me chills every time I think of it. This word means simply "daddy" it is so unbelievably intimate...and we get to call the CREATOR of the ENTIRE universe...daddy. Our daddy is with us always. He is protecting us wherever we go. He is walking next to me when I'm walking to class. He is always there.
Daddy.
We are children of God.
We are children of the creator of the universe.
We are children of the King of Kings.
We are prince and princesses in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Ummm yes.
That is awesome.
God is great.
