Abba's Child The cry of the heart for intimate belonging
Manning, Brennan
Abba's Child The cry of the heart for intimate belonging Brennan Manning - U.S.A. NavPress 1994 - 188tr. Paperback 23 cm.
Is an impostor robbing you of God's love? We've bought into the lie that we are worthy of God's love only when our lives are going well. If our families are happy or our jobs are meaningful, life is a success. But when life begins to fall through the cracks and embarrassing sins threaten to reveal our less-than-perfect identity, we scramble to keep up a good front to present to the world--and to God... He longs for us to know in the depth of our beings that He loves us and accepts us as we are.... When we are our true selves, we can finally claim our identity as God's child--Abba's child--and experience His pure pleasure in who we are. Brennan Manning encourages us to let go of the impostor lifestyle and freely accept our belovedness as a child of the heavenly Father. In Him there is life.
