When you lie to others, you end up\nlying to yourself.\u201d\n6\nReal fellowship, whether in a\nmarriage, a friendship, or your\nchurch, depends on frankness. In\nfact, the tunnel of conflict is the\npassageway to intimacy in any\nrelationship. Until you care enough to confront and resolve the\nunderlying barriers, you will never grow close to each other. When conflict is handled correctly, we grow closer to each other\nby facing and resolving our differences. The Bible says, \u201cIn the\nend, people appreciate frankness more than flattery.\u201d\n7\nFrankness is not a license to say anything you want, wherever\nand whenever you want. It is not rudeness. The Bible tells us\nthere is a right time and a right way to do everything. 8\nThoughtless words leave lasting wounds. God tells us to speak to\neach other in the church as loving family members: \u201cNever use\nharsh words when you correct an older man, but talk to him as if he\nwere your father.

Discuss the\nproblem with God. If you will pray about the conflict first instead\nof gossiping to a friend, you will often discover that either God\nchanges your heart or he changes the other person without your\nhelp. All your relationships would go smoother if\nyou would just pray more about them. As David did with his psalms, use prayer to\nventilate vertically. Tell God your frustrations. Cry out to him. He\u2019s never surprised or upset by\nyour anger, hurt, insecurity, or any other\nemotions. So tell him exactly how you feel. Most conflict is rooted in unmet needs. Some of these needs\ncan only be met by God. When you expect anyone\u2014a friend,\nspouse, boss, or family member\u2014to meet a need that only God\ncan fulfill, you are setting yourself up for disappointment and\nbitterness. No one can meet all of your needs except God.

In step one, Satan identifies a desire inside of you. It may be a\nsinful desire, like the desire to get revenge or to control others, or\nit may be a legitimate, normal desire, like the desire to be loved\nand valued or to feel pleasure. Temptation starts when Satan\nsuggests (with a thought) that you give in to an evil desire, or\nthat you fulfill a legitimate desire in a wrong way or at the wrong\ntime. Always beware of shortcuts.
