A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends. (Proverbs 16:28)

Let us pray: Almighty God, Our Heavenly Father, we pray that you keep our minds from ugly thoughts and actions. These things have caused so much destructions in many relationships. Create in us a clear mind and a pure heart where there is no room for anger, greed, envy and lust. May we keep and strengthen our relationships with our families, friends and coworkers by avoiding gossips and conflicts. Instead, teach us Lord to lift up one another. These we pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.
