Today I get a chance to share some words with you and the word of the day is: PRIVACY.

When you work in the Insurance industry, especially Medicare insurance, you train extensively on the HIPPA law and Privacy acts. Which is fine.
People who collect others' personal information should be required to adhere to strict privacy rules.
But what about the rest of the world? Shouldn't we all be held to a strict code of privacy when family and friends talk to us in confidence. Should the person confiding in us have to say..."Please keep this confidential" ??
No, they shouldn't!
Proverbs (16:28, 11:13, 18:8, 20:19; 26:22), Romans 1:28 and Corinthians 12:20 remind us how detrimental gossip is. Proverbs 6:9 says, "one who sows discord among the brethren is an abomination to the Lord."
Isn't that what gossip or a breach of privacy and confidence does - sow discord among the brethren?
Yeah, I thought so.
Something to think about!
