Why Daddy's Girl?


OK - so I should explain this "daddy's girl" thing.

For anyone that is a daddy's girl, no explanation is needed. You already get it. But not everyone has had that privilege.

I was always a daddy's girl. When I was little, I followed daddy around and simply loved to be with him. I was his treasure - his baby girl, and the apple of his eye. He loved me with his whole heart. Even to his last days on this earth, he called me his baby. I wouldn't have it any other way.

But you see, I'm also a Daddy's girl - of the heavenly variety. My Heavenly Father loves me and treasures me. I am the apple of His eye too. He has loved me so much, that He gave His Son Jesus for me - just so I could live with Him forever. Pretty cool. It would be good for me to remind myself more often just how much I am loved. But like everyone else, I get distracted sometimes by the circumstances around me. And I start to focus on what's wrong in the world instead of the awesome God who has redeemed me. So for this post, I revel in the amazing love of my Heavenly Father, and quietly ask Him to tell my daddy that I love him, and miss him. Because you see, I'll always be a daddy's girl.
