All About Abba's Love
He is jealous for me
Love's like a hurricane, I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight
Of His wind and mercy
When all of a sudden, I am unaware
And these afflictions eclipsed by glory
And I realize just how beautiful You are
And how great Your affections are for me
Oh, how He loves us so
Oh, how He loves us
How He loves us so
We are His portion and He is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If grace is an ocean we're all sinking
So heaven meets earth
Like a sloppy wet kiss
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets
When I think about the way
He loves us
Oh how He loves us

Today all I have is these lyrics from “How He Loves Us” by Jesus Culture
Abba’s presence and love is so thick and tangible.
I’m amazed at how Abba always has His hands wide open with a huge smile on His face and eyes full of light, saying “Welcome home child!” every time I’ve foolishly strayed and I return to Him.
No matter how far or how long I’ve strayed, He’s always ready to welcome me like it’s my first time.

If you can, play the song here, and take a moment to bask in Abba’s love.
If you feel far from Abba and would love to reconnect, please say the prayer below:
Hello Abba,
It’s Your child, (input your name).
I know it’s been a while, but I really want to be close again.
I don’t know how to go about it, but I trust that Your mercy and grace is sufficient.
I reaffirm my belief in the finished work of the Cross where You gave up Your life so I could find it here.
I ask that You help me keep my eyes stayed on You in Jesus name.
Thank You for Your word in John 6:44 that says no one comes to You except You draw them close.
Thank You for drawing me close.
Thank You for the gift of the Cross.
