Jesus
did everything to keep Judas away from his evil plot but Judas was not
persuaded. In spite of how loving Jesus was he still had an enemy who was
working against his interest right in his very house. A man’s enemy our Lord
says will be of his household. The most difficult enemy to defeat is the enemy
within. Lent is a time to look into our hearts
to repent for the times we have played Judas.
“Have you heard of the most evil things done by people in their
lifetime? They have coveted men's wives, killed hundreds of Christians and sold
their best friend's life away for just a few coins. Isn't it interesting that
they were God's chosen in the bible? Think of Saul, David, Judas etc.
Lord,
never allow my heart to be so hardened as to turn my back on you. May I never be deaf to that still small voice
admonishing me against evil in my heart. Grant me O Lord a listening ear. Feet that
hurries away from evil. Arms that are eager to do good. Amen.
