We should not gossip

When someone confides in us with something that is of a very personal and intimate nature, how do we handle that?  It should be with the dignity and respect that the person has shown to us in confiding in us.  When someone shares something with us that is sensitive to them it demonstrates their trust they have in us.  When a person gossips they betray that trust and share these personal and confidential matters with others.  Children of God ought not to gossip.  We are admonished in the Bible to not to do so.  When we gossip it destroys the trust the person placed in us and potentially causes harm to the person we are gossiping about.  (Romans 1:29-30)
