the high road

Psalm 109:4
4 In return for my friendship they accuse me,
but I am a man of prayer.

When you are the brunt of gossip or criticism behind your back, God knows who you really are. Talk to him about it. He will find a way to respond to the gossip, and he will give you the ability to handle it, as well. After all, he has a little experience with being misunderstood and maligned.

Ask God to keep your talk of others pure, and ask for forgiveness if it hasn’t been lately.
