Obedience in the Hard

Air Date: December 20, 2024

Ron: Choosing obedience, in hard situations, pays dividends beyond our wildest dreams.

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.

Ron: You could hear little girl laughter in the background while Mario was telling me on the phone how fond he is of his stepgranddaughters and how much fun they have making baloney sandwiches. But there is a backstory. You see, he and their mother, his stepdaughter, had some rough years together. Mario thought about giving up but was convicted by God to love her through the hard stuff. He obeyed.

Now, years later he is eating up her kids, his stepgranddaughters. You know, obedience in hard things is never easy. But who knows the joy and surprise that awaits on the other side. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
