God is the ultimate father. He has adopted us as his own. This has helped me greatly, because my father was an alcoholic most of my life, and now is a dry one.
He is very hard to get close to, but I dont feel bitter with him because I know he was raised by an abusive woman, he is just a weak man-my expectation of him is very low.
Some of the junk he pulls still hurts and I still need to forgive him.

While being Christian certainly has helped, I believe the relationship I never had has effected my relationship with God, in that, it's difficult to see Him as my Father knowing that my own father wants nothing to do with me. It's hard for me to fathom having a daddy.
