Gossip/Don't Speak Unless you can Improve the silence!

Gossipers: Do you know people who are always in someone else's business. When there is no one else's business to be in, now they are trying to get into yours. They come across to you as if they want to be your friend just so you can be comfortable with them. Once they gain your confidence and your trust, they go and betray your confidence and now they feel they have succeeded and now tell others. What that gets you is nothing more than all your business now all around town. Stay away from people who gossip and talk too much if you don't want your business out in the streets. A ((REAL & POWERFUL)) woman knows when to listen and when to speak. You first must listen to gain knowledge and when you gain knowledge, that turns into power. After you have listened and gained all that you can gain, now when the opportunity presents itself to speak to anyone in any situation, you will have come across as knowledgeable, smart and intelligent. This is how you become a real and powerful woman. James 1:19 ...be swift to hear, slow to speak... Death and life are in the power of the tongue,.... Of witnesses, according to the testimony they bear; of judges, according to the sentence they pass; of teachers, according to the doctrine they preach; of all men, who, by their well or ill speaking, bring death or life to themselves and others. Some, by their tongues, by the too free use of them, or falsehood they utter, are the cause of death to themselves and others; and some, by their silence, or by their prudent speech and prevalent intercession, secure or obtain life for themselves and others; yea, judgment at the last day will proceed according to a man's words, "By thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned", Matthew 12:37; the tongue is the instrument either of a great deal of good, or of a great deal of evil; and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof; that delight to be talkative; that love to use the tongue, whether in a good or in a bad way, shall accordingly be recompensed; shall enjoy the advantages or disadvantages arising from it. What continues to boggle my mind is the fact that those people who barely know you have the most to say about you???? I'm sorry you can stalk my Facebook Instagram twitter and any other social media I may have and still won't know me. We have to realize that we speak things into existence! What are you speaking into your life and the lives of others? Live and let live! You may not like what someone else has chosen to do with their life but what do you gain from speaking negative into their life? Why not pray Gods guidance for them? And as far as your own life it's the same thing don't dwell and speak on what's wrong! Speak positive! Stop the negative cycle, everything happens for a reason. And you may not see the the light at the end of your current tunnel but it's there. Speak it till you see it. It has to end somewhere, be the one who walks away when the group is gossiping. Walking away may cause you to become their new target, but your character will outshine anything the can come up with! Btw........Don't speak unless you can Improve the silence! Silence is Golden
