Picture this: your friend shows up at school wearing a crown. They demand to be called "Your Highness." They start giving you orders, like, "Bring me snacks." Um . . . no. I mean, it's cool to be confident, but that's a little arrogant. Actually, it's really arrogant. But thousands of years ago, this happened! Sort of. A young guy named Absalom tried to overthrow his father David, king of Israel. 

But here's the problem: David was chosen by God to be king, and — well, it's maybe not a great idea to try to overthrow God's plans. Things did not end well for Absalom. Now, you've probably never tried to overthrow a kingdom, but be honest. Like Absalom, have you ever been a little blinded by your own confidence? Or say, "arrogance?" So here's some advice for next time: when you think you know best, be humble instead.

When you've realized you've been over-confident, what do you do to humble yourself? Does it usually take someone else for you to notice?
