Withdraw Your Foot
Where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth. Proverbs 26:20
Robbed of privacy, friendship is destroyed. There is a degree of reserve to which each soul has birthright, and which if relinquished to the curiosity of the impudent, leaves him stripped of the riches of his soul and robbed of his selfrespect.
The riches of friendship are placed in the hands of those who prove themselves trustworthy. The ignorant will rob a nest of its eggs. The wise wait patiently for the sound of baby birds. He who steals the eggs deprives himself of this pleasure.
This is a very different passage. Maybe a bit hard to give thoughts about. but to me it speaks of respect for a person, for their privacy, it seems to me to be speaking of the opposite of gossip.
Yesterday was a really cool day, the sky looks clear this morning, but it is quite early. Darcy our speaker this week, uses puppets, and presents the gospel in a very easy to understand way. At the end of each service she allows time for the children to respond and they do, we are seeing children set free from a lot of hurts. God brings to this camp children with needs, and he meets them here. They are really good eaters, too. Today is the day we use the left overs, We have little left, so we can create some very good new dishes.
