My boyfriend & I are supposed to have "a talk". I'm worried I won't be able to think fast enough to have the right answers he needs to hear. I know there are scriptures that say the Holy Spirit will answer for you, God will speak through you and teach you what to say, and that God will perform a rescue operation. Please tell me what scriptures have been faithful to you in similar desperate times?

Romans 12:17 Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. 18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. 19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord." 20 To the contrary, "if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head." 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Philippians 2:3 Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.
Colossians 3:12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, 13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.

The steps of a righteous man are ordered by god. Because i believe that everything you go through is part of gods plan for you and there is a reason.

None, the best way to get through problems is to see both sides of the problem. put urself in ur position and only then can u understand him. He needs to do the same.

I rely on myself, not on any book. Sorry.
