“Daddy” is perhaps the best translation for “Abba”. In this one word, Daddy, St. Paul is revealing the heart of God. God is love and he reveals himself to us as a loving father.
“For those who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a spirit of adoption, through which we cry, “Abba, Father!” The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God” ~ Romans 8: 14-16
So Christians, let the spirit of God that dwells within you embrace your spirit with fatherly love and transform you into the children God desires you to be.

Peace be with you.
