"So, when you are sinned against or when the fallen world breaks your door down, don't lash out or run away. Stand in your weakness & confusion and say, 'I am not alone. God is with me, & He is faithful, powerful & willing.' Be realistic and hopeful at the same time. Realistic expectations are not about hope without honesty, & they are not about honesty without hope. Realism is found at the intersection of unabashed honesty & uncompromising hope. God's Word & God's grace make both possible. "Are your expectations for your marriage realistic?"
