Ron: How do you respond to people who are negative and unfair? Repay them with stubborn goodness.

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

Ron: Carrie called me for some marital counseling. What surprised me was she got my name from her children’s stepmother. Carrie said, “I’ve come to trust her and her recommendations, but it didn’t start out that way. When she first married my ex-husband I thought she was the enemy. I was threatened by her. But she has proven herself time and again to be decent and selfless.” Wow, the power of stubborn goodness!

If your enemy is hungry and thirsty, says Proverbs 25, give him something to eat and drink and the Lord will reward you. You know, I’ll add this, sometimes so will they. For FamilyLife Blended, I’m Ron Deal.
