Gen 24:12 ---- "...and show kindness to my lord Avraham"

Since the writer has not used some other accusative such as 'el' for example 
or 'et' but uses a very informal 'im', am I right in assuming that there is 
an expression of tenderness/heartfelt desire expressed on behalf of Abraham 
and not simply him just doing the servant's job and getting it over and done 
with.
