Relax Into Abba’s Arms

Me relaxing under my “earthly” Abba’s arm. Circa 1972. Likely taken by my mom.

Relax into Abba’s arms.
Breathe in His Love,
and sufficiency. 

May His Word be honey to all your being.
As you close your eyes, 
let Him reveal more of Himself.

When you awake,
let worship of the One flow freely, 
and gratitude fill your days.

As His blessings flow through you to others,
may you receive back seven-fold
for your cooperation with the divine plan.

Be refreshed in Abba’s presence, 
especially when you walk through the valley of death. 
He is drawing you to His side.

Do not lean on your own understanding.

Instead, listen to His still

small voice

May you experience Abba’s everlasting arms,
in fresh and new ways,
that only you can understand.

He is doing new things.

Look for them. 

Cooperate with those things.

Relax into Abba’s Arms.

About the author

Andrea Van Boven (Madden): I like to think I am a radical lover of Jesus, but I live in a house and pay bills and look like I fit in with respectable society, like most people. What goes on in my head and heart are hopefully the things that betray the look of "normal" that comes at first glance. I hope those things inside of me seep out to actions as well as words of hope and encouragement. I pray that these in turn will lead others to know the loving Creator who knows us so intimately that he has a number for every hair on every head.
