Our Heavenly Father is our true Father - our earthly father should be a mirror of that relationship, although sometimes it isn’t. … We can strip ourselves bare and He’s able to meet us right where we are.” One of the first things that the Lord taught Blair was to be honest and open with Him about her struggles. I just wanted to put myself out there, if it might benefit someone else.” “I figured I, through sharing my story and being pretty raw and transparent, might be able to present hope for those who are fatherless and also encouragement to the church who are called to care for the fatherless. That’s why she decided to write Finding My Father. She knew that so many others were struggling for the same reason. “The Lord really ministered to me through my own pain and heartache related to not having my dad in the home.”
But once Blair met Christ, everything changed. “It was wrestling with this part of me that was missing from my life, this kind of half of me in my father that wasn’t there.” The few times she spoke with him during a year didn’t make for a very meaningful relationship. She needed a father in her life.īlair also struggled with respect for authority and finding her own identity. But in Blair’s book, Finding My Father: How the Gospel Heals the Pain of Fatherlessness, Blair said her mother could not take her father’s place. She tried to offer Blair and her siblings the best life that she could. Blair’s mom struggled like so many single moms do. She lived in poverty and moved 25 times over a span of 16 years - from shelters to friends’ homes to apartments. She is married to Christian rapper Shai Linne.Blair Linne grew up fatherless.
