Plank Pullin' - with gossip...

It’s Plank Pullin’ time! The one day a week that we strongly resolve to ignore the multitude of specks and sawdust around us and pull one bona fide plank from our own eye. Matthew 7:3-5, style.

*deep breath*
I hate gossip. Especially in the form of a prayer request. With a large group of gossipy ladies. Ugh.

But it's just as bad to gossip with one person. In private. With no prayer. (As a matter of fact, it might be worse to gossip without prayer!)

So, what plank am I pullin' today? The gossip plank. Because chances are, if you're reading this blog, I've talked about you. In private with one other person. With no prayer. And I hate it.

I'm sure there are some of you reading, thinking either 1) she couldn't possibly be gossiping about me...    OR    2) I'm offended.

I deeply apologize to everyone. Seriously, I hope we can still be friends.

Consider it pulled. (I might need some help keeping this one out.)

"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."
~Ephesians 4:29
