Betrayed


The word says In Matthew 22:32 Jesus said to him, “‘you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with your entire mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’   That means in every circumstance that you are in.   You don’t get to choose your circumstance.

Here is something to think about.   Jesus knew one of his best friends was going to betray him before he did.   Yet he still loved him and let him be in charge of the money.   So as I was thinking about that today,   and it made me wonder.

What if the Lord gave you a word of knowledge about your best friend?   That this person that you had been doing life with was going to betray you in a few months.     I mean  …….Judas gave up Jesus and  Jesus still loved him.   Jesus  even had communion with Him.  What do you think you would do in those three months?   How would you treat your future betrayer?

How would you treat him after the betrayal?  Knowing what you know and knowing who you are (which is a son or daughter of the King)  Everyone at some point  is going to get hurt, but it is your choice to be offended.
