My Funny, Funny Abba Father

All I can say right now is that God sure has a sense of humor! In the Bible, God is referred to as "Abba Father", which is roughly translated as "daddy". I've always thought there is a major difference between a father and a daddy...it does not take much to be a father (in fact just one simple act), but it takes a lifetime of commitment to be a daddy. Daddies have personality, they have compassion, they express love and model the way thier children should grow, and live, and be. If my earthly daddy can have a great sense of humor (which he does!) then it is only to be expected that my heavenly Daddy, who is perfect in all things, would have the absolute greatest sense of humor! It's a funny relationship we have, me and my God. I know He laughs with me, and sometimes I'm sure He laughs at me...but the times I enjoy the most is are those time He makes me laugh. He makes me giggle, chuckle, belly laugh. Sometimes I just have to say "Really, God? Really..?" and then just laugh.... :)
