The first step to peace between you and the one with whom you have conflict or brokeness - whether friend, family, spouse, is almost always the most difficult step of all.
It is reaching toward the other in humility, with no guarantee they will reach back in kind.
Don't be fearful of what you might lose in the process of seeking reconciliation, your reputation, your self pride, perhaps most of all your adamant claim that you were right all along.
When you finally forsake such willfulness and simply obey God, you will find that you have nothing to lose at all, but could gain a sweet peace that you would never be able to experience other wise.
Are you in pain, hanging on to a grudge?
Though your claims of mistreatment may be well justified, just think about what God could do in your heart and your life if you were to let it go today.
God doesn't change the world through the life of one who is stingy with grace, but through the one who shares grace in the measure it has been received.
