Your experience with key male figures in your life will influence how you view and relate to God. For example, if you grew up with a father that didn’t love, cherish, and support you, it will be harder to see God as a heavenly father that will do those things.

You can be blessed with a father or husband that seeks to reflect a Godly attitude or maybe you will not have that experience. Either way, God cares for and supports you perfectly. Seek relationships that model care and support, knowing none on earth will be perfect.

God values you. Don’t let your experience with a father or husband that fell short discourage you.

Pray for good relationships, and let them begin with you.
