When you hear people speaking ill of others: 🔘Always ask yourself why they feel the need to tell you. 🔘Know that if they're doing it to them, they will do it to you. 🔘Ask for the other side of the story. There's always another side. 🔘Keep in mind that gossip/slander is a sin that has relational consequences. 🔘Wonder why Satan deemed it important to get you to see this person in a negative light. 🔘Don't just stand there passively. Either speak up or excuse yourself. 🔘Remember, they're sowing a seed in someone else's garden that will eventually come up in their own. Hope this made little sense?
