CONFLICTS

In the Spirit all is good. In the flesh all is confusion and discord. The flesh seeks conflict for it is through conflict that it is defined. A lack of definition causes conflict. It is through conflict that one becomes known. It is an inherent nature of man to conflict. Wars and battles are the larger arena of human conflict. Without conflict man feels undefined and useless. This challenge is what keeps the human race alive. Therefore when there is no conflict it does not mean it is all peace. No conflict means avoidance of conflict. The conflict has been internalised. When the conflict is internalised then it breaks forth in mental and physical illness. Man externalises conflict because he wants to blame someone else for his unrest. This unrest will continue till he is able to define himself. In the Spirit there is real peace. The flesh is dead in the spirit. It is the flesh that seeks to be defined and known. The lack of knowing is what causes conflicts. In the Spirit you are known and at peace because you can rest in Him. It is no longer I but Christ. It is Christ within who now rules and not self. When self is cancelled then there is no place for conflict. Who would you fight with if there is no self to fight for? Be filled in the Spirit and walk in the Spirit and walk in peace.
