Share the Good News
The Generous Wife
It’s easy to talk about folks when you’re having a chatfest with friends. “Ooh, did you know that Cheryl is pregnant?! John just bought a new pool table.” and on and on. Good news is fun to share, but sadly, so is a bit of gossip.
We talk about what we know and we know a lot about our guys. If we are not careful, we can easily gossip or badmouth our menfolk.
I have an easy rule to help with that.
Don’t say anything about your husband unless you would say it in front of him. Let your speech bless him whether he is there to hear it or not.
Share the good news. Nix the gossip.
Set a guard over my mouth, Lord; keep watch over the door of my lips.
Proverbs 141:3 NIV
