Hi legacy,

Male

Q1, C

Q2, I personaly think that it is better to try and resolve all conflicts with some empathy and understanding, but also you should let them know that you mean buisiness, and that you are not going to be treated like a door mat.

Q3 Well i dont know, Violence does not solve anything. But then ive been bulied, turned the other cheek and still come worse off. Would it have made a difference if I used violence? I dont know

Q4 being able to sort out a situation without without using violence

Dear Legacy,

God bless you! We hope this will help.

Male

1. E. In a matter of seconds, focus on Jesus, look at him/her with LOVE, and then walk away silently.

2. Focused on Jesus, I choose to try and understand the person.

3. Focused on Jesus, I choose to tolerate the person I am trying to understand. Describing the situation, with blood or a mark on my face or person, I use a calm tone of voice to express my feelings of what just happened. Remember, I am focused on Jesus, its hard, but the other person does not see fear in me but a light. I find this results in a witness for Christ.

4. Focused on Jesus means nonviolence to me in any combative situation.

Your servant in Christ Jesus.
