Gossip

Is there a good gossip, verses bad gossip? The answer is NO, Any gossip is bad, let's define that word gossip: According to Webster Dictionary this word means this: a person who habitually reveals personal or sensational facts about others 2 a:rumor or report of an intimate nature b: a chatty talk c: the subject matter of gossip

I have found over the years that there are some who think just because they own a business, or are the president of a school or college, or founder of a hospital, or the pastor of a large church they have the right to gossip. According to God and His word no one has that right. Gossip will destroy, and when you sow those kinds of seed you are not only destroying others, but yourself as well. It will catch up with us one day, so just as I have had to do I am asking each one who reads this to search their own hearts and examine if you have got caught up in this trap the devil sets to harm us and those around us.

The bible says this: In Psalm 15:1-5 NCV


NEW CENTURY VERSION
1 Lord, who may enter your Holy Tent? Who may live on your holy mountain? 2 Only those who are innocent and who do what is right. Such people speak the truth from their hearts 3 and do not tell lies about others. They do no wrong to their neighbors and do not gossip. 4 They do not respect hateful people but honor those who honor the Lord. They keep their promises to their neighbors, even when it hurts. 5 They do not charge interest on money they lend and do not take money to hurt innocent people. Whoever does all these things will never be destroyed. A miktam of David.

I had got caught in this trap myself by someone I love and respect, and the Holy Spirit brought truth to set me free, and felt this needed to be out, I have written another Story about on the ants.
Final statement: We must rely on the Holy Spirit and what He gives us about people, not someone else.
Read about the Ants in the March issue. Happy Reading
