Ideal And Real

When you think of your family, would you consider it “ideal”? Our would it be better described as “real”? God knows that we all live in a real world with real situations and real family problems that we have to work out. This is why He has given us His grace to bridge the gap between the real and the ideal. His ideals don’t change but HIs grace empowers us to live in the real and grow into all that He wants our families to be.
