Reducing conflict in relationship
There are always two options between both parties in every relationship, understanding and misunderstanding.
Since we have not come to the land of perfection, conflict is bound to occur. Conflict is part of life. Conflict is never as dangerous as people think. Conflict is never the reason why relationship should break off, but it stirs breakage in relationship if not properly managed. Conflict is a means to understand an individual’s dos and don’t. All conflict starts with a misunderstanding and if both parties involved will seek more to reveal the ‘mis’ in misunderstanding and put it aside, there will be understanding.
It is wise to realise that it takes both parties to have understanding and it takes both parties to have misunderstanding. While understanding stirs up peace to abound in the relationship binding both parties, misunderstanding stirs up conflict that is capable of tearing both parties apart and bring a break in the relationship. There are always two options between both parties in every relationship, understanding and misunderstanding.
But love which was not properly defined can result to a faulty foundation in relationship
We have to come to the full knowledge that there will be no peace until love is known. And it takes two to be in love. If we claimed to be in love, let us also be in peace. Love is essential as the factor the stirs up relationship and it is a factor that will help preserve any relationship to the level its been acknowledged. The fact I want to establish here is that whatever that initiates a relationship has the tendency to elevate such relationship to its joyous point and it also has the tendency to drag such relationship to the mud if neglected.
“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (Psalm chapter 11 verses 3)
There is no relationship that does not start on the basic of love. No one can claim to establish a relationship with someone he or she does admire. The love factor must play its role. But love which was not properly defined can result to a faulty foundation in relationship. And any faulty foundation is relationship is a destroyed foundation that cannot stand the true test to hold such relationship.
No individual can truly open the heart of the partner to see what is inside.
The foundation of love is critical in any relationship. When a young man walks to his parents to tell them about someone he is thinking will be the best suitor for him. The woman has a way to ask a unique question because they understand their species. “Do you truly love the lady?” If he gives her assurance that he truly loves her, the next question will be. “Does she truly love you? If he gives them the impression that they both love each other. “Then bring her let your father and I meet with her. The father might not want to say anything right there but he will summon for a private discussion with his son.
“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” (Galatians chapter 6 verses 7)
Right inside the both parties, they are the one who will sincerely testify if the love they are professing is truly from the right perspective. No individual can truly open the heart of the partner to see what is inside. But one way to reduce conflict in any relationship is checking your heart and to know what source of love are you pouring out for the foundation that will help build and sustain such relationship till the end.
Nature is what you give in and it will give out to you.
God can never be mocked. It is the love one sow in his or her relationship, that person will live to harvest. You have the power to reduce conflict in your relationship if only you can be truthful to oneself. You don’t have to think you are playing wise. Being yourself is one of the major factor to reduce conflict in relationship. You don’t have to claim you are who you are not. We will look deep into that in one of the recent episode.
You see, a relationship can be built on love but if true love was never present in the first place is a disaster that is about to happen. What were people thinking when they were going about a relationship when they can sincerely pin point that they are pouring out the true love that will solidify the foundation and make it lasting? No one can escape it. Nature is what you give in and it will give out to you. Start it right from the beginning and it will reduce conflict in your relationship and you will live to enjoy it.
Conclusion:
“Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.” (2Corinthians chapter 13 verses 11)
