Can’t Stand the Heat
20
Fire goes out without wood,
and quarrels disappear when gossip stops.
21
A quarrelsome person starts fights
as easily as hot embers light charcoal or fire lights wood.
22
Rumors are dainty morsels
that sink deep into one’s heart.
Today's message from Proverbs is pretty obvious: without gossip, arguments will die down. But a quarrelsome person keeps things going, like adding fuel to a fire, just because they like stirring up trouble.
Why does gossip hang around? It’s just human nature. Many people hold onto juicy gossip, keeping it tucked away until they get a chance to share it with someone else.
Think about this: Do you help keep controversy alive by gossiping? If someone at your church does something scandalous, do you spread the news? What should you do instead? In Matthew 18, there's a clear process for dealing with sin in the church. Rather than gossiping or ignoring the issue, you should follow this process, which aims to restore the person to God and the church.
