It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until he has hurt him deeply." God actually rises up storms of conflict in relationships at times in order to accomplish that deeper work in our character. We cannot love our enemies in our own strength.

For He brings us through these tests as preparation for greater use in the Kingdom. You must pass the test first. ↗
