In the middle of the continuum, away from shame and blame, we find kindness and accountability. The middle is where the truth lies.
Quotes from Pr. Russell Nelson’s talk “Peacemakers Needed”
“Building bridges of understanding will require much of you.”
“Contention drives away the Spirit, every time. Contention reinforces the false notion that confrontation is the way to resolve differences, but it never is. Contention is a choice. Peacemaking is a choice.”
“Charity is the antidote to contention. Charity is the spiritual gift that helps us cast off the natural man, who is selfish, defensive, prideful, and jealous. Charity is the principal characteristic of a true follower of Jesus Christ. Charity defines a peacemaker. . . One of the best ways we can honor the Savior is to become a peacemaker.”
Peacemakers don’t blame other people. Peacemakers don’t simmer in shame.
Dr. Becky Kennedy, an expert in child development, said,
"You are still a good person even when you struggle."
