Forgive me of gossip and being a talebearer and of idle chatter! I humbly repent and ask you to cleanse me with the precious blood of Jesus! Now Father, please take me back to my first love. Take me back to sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with others! My mouth will show forth your praise! In Jesus Mighty Name I pray. Amen
