I was talking with a dear friend last night. She was telling about life and it's happenings and she said, "What's wrong with my family? Why can't we just be normal?"
I laughed and said, "There's no such thing as normal and there's no such thing as a perfect family."
Do you know why there's no such thing as a perfect family? Because families are made up of people. Selfish, flawed, imperfect people. All of whom live in a world full of sin and in need of the grace of God every second of every day.
As for normal, who really wants to be normal? Dictionary.com defines normal as "conforming to the standard or the common type; usual; regular". Oh ick!! Who wants to be any of those? God is creative!! Every single person completely unique. What a boring life this would be if we were all "normal" and the same.
