Actions speak much louder than words.
Ron: Actions speak much louder than words.
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Yeah, as they say, the proof is in the pudding. You can’t deny it: someone who stands up and stands beside you in tough times, really loves you. After our middle son died, many of our what we thought were friends drifted away. They couldn’t handle it or us, I’m not sure what happened. But others, people we didn’t know well, stood by us. And stayed by us. Their friendship was undeniable.
In blended families, when a stressful situation arises, standing by one another makes your love undeniable. You may not have felt like family before the stressor but the proof is in the pudding. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
