After a major disagreement most individuals need time to think through what caused the conflict. It’s important to understand and accept each person’s responsibility for initiating an argument. Owning up to selfishness is not being weak but rather is demonstrating strength of character.
A defining moment occurs when a change in communication style improves how conflict is managed. Insight doesn’t usually come from hostile exchanges of accusations. Insight comes afterwards when there is silence, if it comes at all.
A pivotal moment can come by realizing God is at work to heal each person.
He gives wisdom and understanding to those who will use it so a relationship can heal and peace can be restored. The Good News Bible in Proverbs 17:27 reminds us that “people who remain calm have real insight.” A calming presence is sometimes difficult, but necessary for successful problem solving.

Love
is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not
arrogant. Love does not envy; it does not boast, it Is not proud. It is not
rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keep no record of
wrongs. Love do not delight in evil but rejoices in the truth.
