Proverbs 11:13 ~”A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy man keeps a secret.”
Proverbs 16:28 ~”A perverse man stirs up dissension, and a gossip separates close friends.”
Proverbs 18:8 ~ “The words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to a man’s inmost parts.”
Proverbs 26:20~ “Without wood a fire goes out; without gossip a quarrel dies down.”
Leviticus 19:16 ~ “Do not go about spreading slander among your people.”
And on a more positive note…
I Thessalonians 5:15 ~ “Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else.”

Photobucket is holding all my photos I stored with them from 2007-2015 hostage. They have blacked out all those photos on my blog posts. OH BOTHER! Iām slowly cleaning up my posts.
