Matthew 26:23-24 KJV
And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
[24] The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
I don’t know how it would feel to know that the very person who dipped his hand in a bowl of food with you, would betray you to death in a couple of hours.
Usually we find these things out only after they have happened. We brood over this and sometimes swear never to have anything to do with such a friend.
But think about this, what if you knew even before it did happened? What if, perhaps by some supernatural means, you are able to know beforehand what one of your buddies is up to, concerning your very life?
Jesus’s tolerance for his ‘enemy’ knew no limits, so the will of His Father could be accomplished? How willing are you to tolerate an inconvenience, a pain or a nauseous neighbour, just for His will to be done?
Have a blessed day.
