Title: Gossips Are Junk

Scriptures: Proverbs 26:22

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus!  Proverbs 26:22 says, "Listening to gossip is like eating cheap candy; do you want junk like that in your belly?"

God does not only warns us of gossiping as a sin or wrong action but he also warns us of "listening" to gossip.  Many times we thought that we're not doing anything wrong because we're just listening and we are not gossiping or spreading lies/rumors.  Another wrong thinking is when we think that because we said, "I don't know how true this is?" indicating that the rumor we tell may or may not be true, we're good because we leave a benefit of the doubt to whoever is involve.  Or maybe we are not sharing whatever we heard, we just want to know and be in the knowledge of what's new or be updated on a certain rumor or gossip about a person we know, then we are safe and we're not doing anything wrong.  We'll God points out a powerful truth today!  Gossip are junks, they may not have an immediate effect on us, but it is slowly destroying our character, our perception, our beliefs, etc.  It is hazardous to our spiritual health and the impact is slow so stop taking in junk into your heart and mind today.  Focus on real solid food by reading God's words instead.

Happy Wednesday!

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for a great and wonderful message.  I am blessed to have heard of such great warning.  Help me Lord to apply them in my life as I am weak and need Your strength to overcome my desire to know or my desire to tell.  Give me the self-control I need Lord.  In Jesus' Name Amen!
