Settle Conflicts With Your Neighbour

Prov. 25:8-10

We may have disagreement or conflict with our neighbors. If not well managed, the disagreement can degenerate into a fight or serious conflict. There have been cases where neighbors have taken themselves to court. The Christian may be the one at fault or the neighbour. The Christian who claims to be a child of God should imitate God the Father. When man strayed away from and disobeyed God, it was God who took the initiative to reconcile man to Himself by sending Jesus Christ to seek for man and to save man. The Christian should therefore, seek to resolve thorny issues with his neighbors. When there is a quarrel between two people, it is the more spiritual that should take the initiative to find a solution. You are the sons of your heavenly father if you do what is right.

POINT OF EMPHASIS: You are a child of God if you are a peacemaker.

PRAYER POINT: Heavenly Father, please help me to live my life as a child of God.
