What even is gossip? Is it going too far with the facts? Is it speaking behind someone’s back? What does the Bible actually have to say about it, and how can we start speaking life and honoring people with our speech instead of slandering and tearing them down?

I know too many people who are stuck living in a cycle of shame, believing that the mistakes and sins they have made will define who they are forever. But Jesus not only forgives us of our sins; He also takes away our shame!

Jesus invites all of us to come to Him, to take upon His yoke, and in doing so, we will receive rest. I know I am also in need of that kind of spiritual refreshment!

We will eventually have to walk through the fire, the trials, the suffering, the season of loss or barrenness, and it's so easy from our limited perspective and point of view to believe God is the one burning us.
