"Father (as in paternal parent, not God)”
Father, I Love You
I have known the Father a mere ten years and He has always come through in every situation.
My birth umbilical cord is fed straight from Heaven.
We are connected in a divine way.
Trusting Him is one of the most important aspects of our relationship as father and daughter.
We are walking in family intimacy coexisting by the DNA blood of Jesus Christ.
He is my Father!
He is all that I need!
From the very beginning of our partnership, He has highlighted one particular verse that has stayed with me ensuing in my complete trust over our kinship.
It is:
Matthew 14:29
And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
During this time I felt that if my Daddy was out on the water and he bid me to come, I’d run and not walk into the loving arms of He who loves me so much.
My life has changed immensely as God has become Father to me.
Our relationship deepened and our walk has been together instead of very far apart.
This life long journey’s path has become intertwined in a greater way as my Father directs my steps and I come to depend on him more and more.
I recall one other Scripture verse that set my faith in alignment with the Father.
It is an obedience verse and it impressed me with fervor of what was to come.
It is:
John 2:5
His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
This was the first miracle of Jesus at the wedding in Cana.
I felt it was a breakthrough in my alliance with the Father.
God the Father is sovereign over the Trinity and over my life.
He has taught me well in so many different aspects of this time.
Both verses cited here are the signs and wonders of the lovely path He has generously given us, all a precious gift.
He has given birth to us the first time and He has given us rebirth the second time.
Together these opportunities are very effective to see us through the tremors of our daily walk.
1) We must be have faith
2) We must be obedient
3) We must have intimacy
These are three reliable foundations for the basis of our son ship to the Father.
I for one am pleased to announce my dedication to the One who gives me breathe and has fulfilled all necessary requirements of being “Daddy God”.
All my thanks and love go to Him.

I'm afraid that it'll be considered "Off topic", though, since entries were specifically to be about paternal parents, not God.
