Beware of gossip. Don't believe everything you hear and only speak to those thing you know to be true. And -- Some things that are true do not need to be repeated! Try to keep all of your talk about others to things that are uplifting. Do not be deceived and fall into the trap of trying to feel better about yourself by tearing another person down.
A perverse man stirs up dissension, and a gossip separates close friends. (Proverbs 16:28)
"Every moment of everyday we can see the wonders of His Glory in the patterns of His Wisdom. We only need to look." -Pastor Jim, from For His Glory: A Kaleidoscope of Wisdom
Be a person who stands by your word. Let your yes be yes and your no be no. Take care not to promise something which you may not be able to do; but if you do promise, then keep your word. Such people are rare but they have no problem finding respect from others and they walk through life with a clear conscience.
But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation. James 5:12

True worship begins with the heart. If the heart is not right -- if Jesus is not present and sitting on your heart's throne, then it is impossible to worship God in truth and spirit (John 4:23-24). A self-examination of the heart and prayerful attitude will help develop true worship. Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

THE HEART’S WORSHIP. -Bowring The offerings to Thy throne which rise, Of mingled praise and prayer, Are but a worthless sacrifice, Unless the heart be there. Upon Thine all-discerning ear Let no vain words intrude; No tribute but the vow sincere,— The tribute of the good. Our offerings will indeed be blest, If sanctified by Thee; If Thy pure spirit touch the breast With its own purity. O, may that spirit warm each heart To piety and love, And to life’s lowly vale impart Some rays from heaven above.
