We cannot avoid conflicts in our lives.

We know that we need to do everything with


love and a serving heart, but sometimes it is very difficult to deal with these conflicts
on our own. Consider these Bible verses and gain some wisdom for these situations.
Matthew 5:9
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Matthew 18:15-17
"If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him
alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen,
take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the
evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the
church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile
and a tax collector.
James 1:19
Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak,
slow to anger;
Romans 12:17-21
Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all.
If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never
avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, "Vengeance is
mine, I will repay, says the Lord." To the contrary, "if your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning
coals on his head." Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
1 Samuel 8:7
And the Lord said to Samuel, "Obey the voice of the people in all that they say to
you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me from being king over
them.
Proverbs 15:1
A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
