Scripture:
Gossip is spread by wicked people;
They stir up trouble and destroy friendships.”
–Proverbs 16:28
Observation:
Talking about others can cause a lot of problems.
Application:
It’s important to think before we speak. Always.
When mentioning someone, or talking about him or her, think about if you would you say it if the person you are talking about it was there. If not, think about why or why not. Then proceed with what you know is the right way to go. (And we know you know the right way, here, even when you don’t want to know!)
Prayer:
Father God,
Please guide me in conversations so that I can keep them honoring to you, those around me and anyone mentioned. And, Father, please help me live in a way that others will show me the same respect.
Thank you.
