Jesus knew…But Judas
ate too
Think about this for a second. Jesus knew.
He goes into that room with His disciples. He knows He is going
to be betrayed. He knows it is Judas who will turn against him. He knows that
He has been sold out for a handful of silver. Stabbed in the back by one He has
poured His life into.
Yet, in that room, hours before the death of Jesus, Judas ate
too. Jesus fed Judas too. Jesus prayed for Judas too. Jesus washed Judas’ feet
too. I struggle to fathom that kind of love. A love that would feed the mouth
that deceived you. A love that would wash the treasonous feet of the traitor. A
love that could forgive even the vilest of betrayals.
I honestly struggle to comprehend it. And then, suddenly, I
realize that I’m Judas. And in that moment, I’m so thankful & altogether
overwhelmed that Judas ate too.
