Walk Your Talk (Proverbs 20)
Many people claim things about themselves and make promises but few people live up to them. It's always been that way. Proverbs 20 warns us that many people profess their loyalty and kindness, but few are faithful to it. That was the norm. That's why today as people who reflect Christ to the world we should strive, in this case, to be abnormal. Don't make promises you can't keep and be honest and faithful in your business practices and dealings with friends and family. Walk your talk.

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Many people claim a lot of things about themselves and make a lot of promises. But in today’s world few people live up to them. It’s always been that way in the ancient world as well. Proverbs 20 warns us that many people profess their loyalty and kindness, but few are faithful to it. That was the norm. That’s why today as people who reflect Christ to the world we should strive, in this case, to be abnormal.
Don’t make promises you can’t keep. Let your word be your bond. Fulfill your part of the bargain. And be honest and faithful in your business practices and dealings with friends and family. In other words, walk your talk. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
