Proverbs 11:13 (NKJV) 13 A talebearer reveals secrets, But he who is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter.
Being trustworthy with the things others tell us is not something that we often think about.
Nonetheless, it is critical for us to grasp the importance of this in our day-to-day lives.
When someone shares a private matter with us, they do so with the understanding that we will hold it in confidence; we will not tell others.
And so it should be. Being trustworthy is a characteristic that should be natural for us.
As followers of Christ, our lives should emulate Jesus, bringing honor to God in the things we say and do.
Betraying the trust of others is something that we should be careful not to do. And if we have ever experienced betrayal of this kind, we will understand the importance of that statement.
So, let us be careful to honor God by honoring the faith and trust others put in us to keep their confidential and personal matters what they were meant to be; secrets that are safe.
May God be glorified in all that we do.
Amen
