Episode Transcript
Ron: Because we parents love our kids, we are vigilant to protect them from harm. What’s sobering though, is all the things we can’t control.
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: We can’t control what another kid says to them on the playground, what they are exposed to on the internet, the illness they might pick up at school, or how someone drives when giving them a ride.
You know, stepparents also have things they can’t control. What a parent in the other home says about them. How quickly a stepchild will open their heart to them. And never being their spouse’s first love. So, stepparent what do you do? Well, what all of us parents do. Pray…and cast your anxieties on the One who can be trusted with what we can’t control. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
