For where there is jealousy and selfishness, there is strife and every evil work. - James 3:16
Strife is a very sneaky thing. It can sneak in like cancer and steal your peace, destroy relationships and extinguish all hope for your future. You must always stay on guard against strife and make the decision to walk in love and peace. Keeping strife out of your life is a vital key to living the abundant life God has in store for you!
Follow the example of Jesus and let your words and actions bring life to those around you. Focus more on loving people than proving your point in an argument. As you honor and prefer others and lay your own opinions aside, you'll discover a level of peace and rest you've never experienced before, then shall follow new levels of victory and abundance.
Husbands and wives, always kiss goodnight and say your sorry even if it's not your fault in your eyes, friends always hug and tell each other your sorry even if it hurts you to do so, families don't hold past arguments over each others heads and live for the next argument, love one another as Jesus loves us and you will never have strife in your house!
