Christians
We are such
hypocrites
I hate it
say it, but it's true.
We talk constantly
about not
gossiping, to the point were we are all sick of it.
We'll talk about how it's bad, and we reprimand others
for doing it.
But when prayer time comes around, we'll all be
like,
"Oh, you
will never believe it! This girl at my school did
this"
and
"He
did that with her" and
"she
said that to her."
We tell
ourselves we aren't really doing it for gossip,
that we are just praying for them, to help them.
Yeah, right.
We might have fooled our minds,
but our hearts know sure and well that we're doing it
for us.
Or even worse, we'll say something like,
"He
did that the other day. Lord bless
him."
No, I am
not trying to act all high and mighty, because this is one of my
worst habits, pretending to be talking about someone else
for their own good,
but really just be gossiping for fun.
And admit it.
We'll gossip about someone at least once this week. I sure
know I will.
All I ask is that you try to be cautious of it.
Try to catch yourself, and try not to do it.
Because how on earth are we suppose to bring others
home
when they think we are hypocrites?
