The Wednesday before . . .

“. . . the Chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for a way to get rid of Jesus. . .”.

“Satan entered Judas. . ., and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them. . .”.

I read these words with some dismay.  How could Judas, one who walked with Jesus, betray him?  But then I remember, that which I have known for a long time; it is my sin, my rebellion, my listening to Satan’s lies, my betrayal that Jesus died for.

Be blessed.  Be encouraged.  Because of Jesus’ willing sacrifice, we have been provided the way of reconciliation.  Our betrayal, through Jesus, can be forgiven.  (Read 2 Corinthians 5:16-21).
