Issac's problem solving

It's interesting how Issac solved these conflicts. He never really got angry, but since God kept blessing him it didn't matter. The Philistines filled in the wells, so he dug them out again and found water. Then other people fought over them, so he dug another one. Somebody else quarreled over the new one, so he moved on and dug another (and found water). He was rejected/kicked out by Abimelech and company, who then tried to make a treaty with him b/c they were afraid of him. And in return, he made a feast for them!
much easier to solve conflict peacefully when God provides. Or does God provide when we solve problems peacefully? Or at least, we should trust that he will provide so that we can approach things in peace rather than fear?
