The Evil of Gossip

The Bible's book of James speaks of it how the tongue is such an evil thing one minute speaks good then next it's evil such damage and harm it does bring So many people get hurt by gossip it has a malicious intent in it's force changing a word or two in it's content can put it on complete new course Some people tend to make additions adding their own particular slant making it give complete new meaning it's original thought lost now it can't Any trust between two people is lost how can one know real true trust? when one gossips removes friendship doubts enter trust flys away like dust Keep a bridle on your tongue no gossip for it's just to tell a lie it never profits anyone at all hold only truth make gossip die
