I was tempted to just leave this verse up and say meditate on it today. In many ways it doesn't need any commentary. Jesus called his father 'Abba' Daddy. He taught his disciples to call God father too. Then by the Holy Spirit the early church members felt led to call God 'Abba' too. Incredible! That is God saying that he wants the same intimate, father to son relationship with you as he has with Jesus. You mean that much to him.
Take a listen to Ishmael's version of the old hymn and thank God that you can call him Daddy. It is a totally outrageous thing to be able to do.
