Thoughts for Holy Wednesday from "His Kindness Year Round"

I fully understand the events of this week had to transpire.  I know it was prophesied in the Old and New Testaments.  But . . . .

It still tugs at my heart to think of the deliberate occurrences of this Holy Week.  Judas, one of His disciples, one of the closest men in Jesus’ circle, betrayed Him, for the price of a slave.  Judas, resentful of Mary’s act of love in opening an expensive container of oil to anoint her Jesus, was seeking the opportunity to hand over the Savior to the authorities.

Luke 23:3-6 “Then satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve.  And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. They were delighted and agreed to give him money. He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.”

Prayerfully, meditating in His Word, your sister in Him,

Robin
