I heard this term on TikTok and thought wow, I really do have a girl Dad.
To me a girl dad is a father that just loves being a father to his daughter.
If that doesn’t sound like God to you then keep reading and hopefully I can convince you. God wants nothing more than our reciprocated love, He wants us to lean on the knowledge and wisdom of Him. To know that He is God and that all things through Him are possible.
Wants nothing but worship: Reverence and adoration
John 4:23-24 NKJV But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.
Hebrews 12:28 NKJV Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.
Saved us from sin and a life of misery: No longer bound to the desires of the flesh, or held down by the law
Romans 8:2 NKJV For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
Wants to live with us eternally: A life in God’s presence forever

Romans 6:23 NKJV For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Loves us with no conditions: Loves us in spite of our actions and thoughts
Jeremiah 31:3 NKJV The Lord has appeared of old to me, saying:
“Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love;
Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.
Wants to be in our presence
Psalms 16:11 NKJV You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
Wants good for us: Wants to see us succeed here on earth and make it into His kingdom for eternal life
Romans 8:28 NKJV And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Walks beside us: Provider, protecter, and peace
Omnipresent: Everywhere at once
Omnipotent: All powerful
Omniscient: Knowing everything
Pslams 23:3 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.Isaiah 41:10 NKJV Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’
Teaches, directs, and makes straight our paths
Isaiah 48:17 NKJV Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer,
The Holy One of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
Who teaches you to profit,
Who leads you by the way you should goProverbs 3:6 NKJV In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
There are countless more scriptures that point us the ‘Dad’ qualities of God, but I will leave you with these for now.
Anytime I think that nobody sees me, I am reminded that I serve a God that sees me, loves me, and wants to know me intricately. I have a girl Dad, that loves me for me. My El Roi.
Love always,
Kenny
