TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

BIBLE TEXT: “And he conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped him. But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men which belonged to David, were not with Adonijah. And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which is by Enrogel, and called all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Judah the king's servants: But Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.” (1 Kings 1:7-10 KJV)

BIBLE TWEET: While the egocentric and egotistic are normally encircled by their enablers, they also have no lack of nemeses, who refuse to participate in their coronation.

BIBLE TAKEAWAY: It always comes as a great shock to the self-exalted that all others don’t share their high opinion of themselves. 

"At age 20, we worry about what others think of us. At age 40, we don't care what they think of us. At age 60, we discover they haven't been thinking of us at all."  (Ann Landers)
