Having a Hard Conversation

It’s so hard to have a hard conversation with someone we care about. It’s stressful. It can be overwhelming. It feels like the relationship may come to an end. But sometimes, difficult conversations are what’s most loving. Sometimes, they’re absolutely necessary for a relationship to go deeper, have a future, or grow. 

But it still doesn’t make it easy. 

So if you know in your gut you need to have a hard conversation, and you’re dreading it, maybe this will help.

Here’s a scripture we think about and a prayer for before we do the loving thing, and lean into a difficult conversation. 

“If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone” (Romans 12:18).

A Prayer for a Difficult Conversation

Wise Father, who generously gives wisdom when we ask, help me know if I should have this difficult conversation. Fill me with love for (Name), and help me speak truth with compassion and grace. Help me be clear and kind, and say all I need to say. Help me to do all I can to live at peace with (Name). And may this hard conversation not lead toward division, but instead into a deeper relationship. Amen.
