Family conflicts can make life inside the home horrendous. Nobody wants to be around when arguing, fighting, and complaining are the norm.

So how do you get past the arguing?

You get past it by preventing it in the first place. And you do that through working hard toward every person in the family having a right relationship with God.

    As usual, the answer is always: Grow closer to God.
    Developing a closer relationship with the Creator does a few things to us as far as conflict is concerned.
    First, it causes us to want less and less conflict. The closer we are to Him the more we desire peace and good relations with our family members.
    Second, we respond better to situations that may cause conflict. When we hear a confrontational tone of voice or harsh word our proximity to His eternal Light causes us to respond as Christ would- calming the situation before it becomes volatile.
    Also, parents who are growing closer to Christ set a Christ-like example of conflict resolution. From this children grow up to pass on this ability to future generations.

      Being close to the LORD really is the answer to everything, isn’t it?

    Good advice. Preventative conflict management seems like a good way to view a conflict at the beginning of one. Stop before you start like you say. I also like the idea of letting love guide one’s actions and words as well as serving your family as a means of leading.
    I may add that if a conflict has already started, it is good to remember the Cross. Both our own and Jesus’s. His completed work there purchased forgiveness for all mankind. And our own cross is where we died to sin. So remembering that we are dead to sin and sin is dead to us brings un back into synch with anyone we conflict with. As the same is true for them; whether they are aware of it or not; we can proceed from a place of forgiveness and love towards them.
