with those who do evil,
who speak cordially with their neighbors
but harbor malice in their hearts.
I am too easily swayed by the opinions of people around me. When someone is talking negatively about a person, I may join in the negative talk. If I do, when I see that person it is so hard for me to look them in the eye and treat them with respect. In one sense it is good, it is hard for me to "speak cordially but harbor malice." But, I don't have to worry about this if I don't talk bad about people in the first place.
Lord, thank you for the wisdom of your word. Lord help me to only speak and think kind thoughts about people. Amen.
