The store last week was out of my favorite bread – fresh, soft, and delicious wheat bread.

Most of the time, I don’t have to worry about the store having it, but lately, they’re always out of stock. So I decided to ask one of the employees why there was no wheat bread available.

He said, “We don’t bake bread; we only sell it.”

His answer shook me but also sparked some deep thoughts.

This is what Abba means.

The word “Abba” is a term for father in Greek meaning sustainer, nourisher, provider, and creator. It is the idea that God is our foundation and source of life.

Jesus taught us how to pray: “Our Father who art in Heaven.” This tells us that our Father is not on Earth but in Heaven…
