i just have one things to say today (not the usual me, i know) and it is this: I Hate Gossip. especially when it involves people in the church who should be loving and non-judgemental and should know better. i think it's a HUGE issue, especially amoung teens.
"A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy man keeps a secret." ~Proverbs 11:13
"...a gossip seperates close friends." ~Proverbs 16:28
so please, next time your tempted to open your mouth and spill the latest, think: how would the person i'm talking about feel if they knew what i was saying? mmm, maybe you don't like the person and therefore don't care (the Bible also says we're supposed to LOVE our enemies)? well how about this: what if someone were to say that about you? mhhmm...that's what i thought. it just comes down to "love your neighbour as yourself" which is the second GREATEST commandment. don't be so judgemental. but if you are judgemental, then keep your judgements to yourself and don't listen to other people when they try to gossip to you.
