Evening — January 25 — Romans 8:15

For you did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” — Romans 8:15God's Spirit of adoption gives us the very cry of the Son, so we are no longer slaves cowering in fear but beloved children who call Him "Abba, Father." The same Jesus who prayed this in Gethsemane now, through His Spirit, prays it in our hearts, granting us the same access to the Father He Himself enjoys. And when we wander like prodigals, the Father does not wait for us to earn our way back—He runs to meet us with compassion and embraces us as His children.
