The One You Need

Father.

I am fortunate to have one of the best dads in the world. Don't get me wrong - my dad is full of mistakes and he is far from perfect, but he is still a wonderful dad who has always treated me like a princess. In fact, even at the age of 23, he still calls me his princess. Anyone who knows my family knows that I have a very special bond with my dad. Let it be known that my mom is an incredible and strong woman - she's absolutely one of my best friends. But there is just something about my dad....I'm definitely a daddy's girl. The most important thing about my dad is that he has always pointed me to the Father. Abba Father - Daddy God. I'm so thankful to have parents that raised me in the church. They made it known to me at a very early age that I have a Savior who loves me. A King who created me to be exactly who I am. I will be eternally grateful for the guidance my parents have given me and the example of leadership that my dad has provided me.

Shane & Shane just put out a new song that reminds me of my dad so much. It's called "The One You Need." It's about a father's prayer that his daughter will come to the understanding that Jesus is the One she needs in her life. I'm not sure my dad has heard this song yet, but I know this has always been his prayer for me.
