The meaning of betrayal is to give over to an enemy by treachery.: to be unfaithful. betrayed our trust.
We located fifty-four verses in the Bible that speak of this heartfelt word…
When we turn back the hands of time to an event that changed the world. So many thoughts flood my mind… Why God, why did you send us such a beautiful soul to only have Him ripped from our lives in such a horrific way. Are we worth even an ounce of His precious blood?? In my mind, I say NO we are not worth it? But in my bleeding heart, I am so grateful for Him. He has been such a monumental gift for all generations.
Though tear-filled eyes I try to understand the lesson you have tried to teach us in this ultimate display of sacrificial LOVE… Why the betrayal? Why thirty pieces of silver? Why Judas? Your plan of salvation for mankind has so many clues? Do these details parallel our lives today??? We tend to see the past as history… But can we relate it to the present??? Have we betrayed Him? Many do not even know His name until it’s their back that is against the wall!! I see money, greed, and power rampant in our world… Have we sold our souls for things of this world?? I see many gathering riches just by exploiting His image, His name, and even the very gifts He has given us…
Are we wearing the Judus cloak ???
These are difficult questions to ask ourselves … I have not been given the task of judging.
Thank God!
I can say let our conscience and the Holy Spirit be our guide… It’s a personal resolve between our Creator and us.
I can only pray that He holds my heart in His hands… and that I can live up to His expectations for my life…
This is a difficult time of reflection… I thank Him for loving me beyond my worth…
I will admit I have fallen in love with the Man, that walked so humbly on this earth so many years ago… and I am grateful to my Elohim that the story does not stop here… I know in my heart that He lives and He holds the keys to my future.
It’s Him, it will always be Him…
The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born. Matthew 26: 24
