VERSE OF THE DAY!

belle

He who covers over an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.
—Proverbs 17:9

Thoughts on Today's Verse...
"It's just a little harmless gossip." The Wise Teacher reminds us that gossip is neither little or harmless. Its consequences are huge and its damage horrible. Instead, it is much better to be a peacemaker and an offense mender.

My Prayer...
Father of Glory, I confess that I am often more a peace lover than a peacemaker. Give me the character not to repeat gossip and instead have the wisdom and strength to be an offense mender. Through the Prince of Peace I pray. Amen.
