TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

TODAY'S BIBLE TEXT: "Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished. The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men." (Joel 1:11-12 KJV)

TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET: Joel calls upon the husbandmen and the vinedressers to be ashamed over both the fruit of their labor being destroyed and the joy of the harvest being deprived from the sons of men.

TODAY'S BIBLE TAKEAWAY: We should not only be ashamed over the futility and fruitlessness of the works of our sinful hands, but also over our sin, our falling so far short of God’s glory, which turns our fallen endeavors into exercises in futility. (Romans 3:23)
