You just need to understand it. Let’s walk this out together — with clarity, compassion, and God’s design leading the way.🧠 Key Takeaways:Conflict doesn’t mean you’re failing — it means you’re engaging.Jesus’ closest followers had conflict — and He stayed in relationship with them anyway.Avoiding conflict buries issues instead of healing them.God meets us in the mess, not just on the other side of it.📖 Scripture Mentioned:Matthew 7:3–5 — “First take the plank out of your own eye…”John 21 — Jesus restores Peter after major relational tension
