MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS

The Word tells us that we should not meddle in other people’s business, but stay focused on our needs and correction. Don’t put our two cents in about a situation that does not concern us, that only creates more problems. A lot of people want to know our business not to help us, but to have something to gossip about. When we set our minds on Christ, we will not have time to meddle in other people situations.

Proverbs 26:20-21 Where there is no wood, a fire goes out, and where there is no gossip, contention ceases. Like charcoal is to burning coals, and wood to fire, so is a contentious person to kindle strife.

Father, help us stay focused on You and not all the confusion and anger around us, especially when it has nothing to do with us. Lord, steer us away from backbiters, Liars, and Carnal minded Christians; so we will avoid strife. Lord, give us correction, direction, and reproof and make it our ambition to lead a quiet life and attend to our own business. Father, let us not be a busybody, who go around from person to person gossiping and talking about things that do not honor You or others. Father, we can't count our blessings and we fall short of Your grace, but we do believe; so help us grow in love and grace.  Lord, give us the wisdom when to have input and when to be silent in other people's business, in Jesus name Amen
