Wisdom in Conflict

"Isaac reopened the wells...But the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac’s herdsmen and said, “The water is ours!”...Then (Isaac) dug another well and (they) quarreled over that one also...(Isaac) moved from there and dug another, and they did not quarrel over it. He named it Rehoboth and said, “For now the Lord has made space for us, and we will be fruitful in the land.” - Genesis 26:18-22

Some conflicts require direct confrontation, while other times it's best to just distance yourself from quarreling people. In each situation we need God's wisdom to know how to respond when conflict arises. Have you encountered any conflict this week? How did you respond?

Prayer suggestion - Pray for God's guidance for any specific conflict you are facing. Ask for the wisdom to know how to respond.
