I'd been conflict-phobic my entire life because I didn't want to lose my inner core of peace.

Because you’re a creation of God, you reflect the Divine qualities of creativity, wisdom, and love.

What robs you from peace? Usually it's the so-called little things in life, like being late to work, or needing a parking place, or trying to find your glasses, your car keys when you are running out the door, those so called little stressors.

If you are asking for a big thing - something about marriage, moving, or health, for example - that's when you need the angels the most, but paradoxically that's also when it is the most difficult for you to hear them. When you get stressed and uptight, your communication energies shut down. So, what I like to do is ask the angels for a sign that I'm getting the message right. The prayer I use is, "Angels, let me know whether or not this is true divine guidance. Please give me a clear sign in the physical world that I can easily notice and understand."

You see, when you're in love, you look for similarities with your beloved. Since the root of all conflict is seeing differences between yourself and another, love truly seems to be the key to eliminating conflict.

True friends are trustworthy angels.

Take a moment to gather your thoughts about your situation and ask, "What would Love do?" Then channel that energy in your words and actions.
