Get Along
There are times we need to work through family conflicts. But there are other occasions when we should set them aside. Friends of mine had a special occasion celebrating the dad in the family. Now, it was a blended family so when the adult children showed up they got territorial and before you know it the occasion was ruined. One of the greatest gifts you can give a parent is peace. Get along! Set aside your insecurities for a minute and celebrate dad this weekend. And let him take a nap!

Ron: There are times we need to work through family conflicts. But there are other occasions when we should just set them aside. Friends of mine had a special occasion celebrating the dad in the family. Now, it was a blended family so when the adult children showed up they got territorial about who sits where, who the real children and grandchildren are, and before you know it the occasion was ruined.
Look, one of the greatest gifts you can give a parent is peace. You’re all family to him. Get along! Set aside your insecurities for a minute and celebrate dad this weekend. And let him take a nap! For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
