Imagine being a silent observer at the Last Supper…. watching Jesus with his twelve disciples….in the picture they look as if they are relaxed, enjoying a simple meal with Jesus. What must have been in their hearts? We know that one was the betrayer. Imagine selling Jesus for thirty pieces of silver???!!! Greed must have been at the heart of the "sale." Yet Jesus remained calm, even though he knew one of them would betray him.
When we look back on these past forty days, have we betrayed Jesus? Another? Ourselves? In what way (s)? What does the word betrayal mean to us? Deception? Letting another down? The definition may vary for each of us. The good thing is we have a forgiving Lord and we can begin again as many times as needed.
I wish you peace during this Holy Triduum.
