Bible Reading: Mark 14:10,11
“And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.” Mark 14:11
Danny had barely finished his lunch when his friend Bansy came in. They had agreed before that it was a convenient time to go and pluck the mangoes now that the owner has travelled for a holiday.
They were not aware of the camera installed on the solar light pole standing close to the mango tree. The solar enables the owner to watch his compound wherever he is in any part of the world.
It was foolish for them to think that there is a convenient time to do what is wrong. No time is convenient to do evil. Some people wait for a convenient time to commit crime. How could it ever be convenient to sin? Some children say, “it is not convenient now, let us wait until when mom and dad have gone out.” Some say, “wait until when the invigilator is not looking in this direction.” Some say “we will do it when everyone has gone away or when it is night.” How convenient is it for some people to do what is bad: tell a lie, fight, cheat, deceive, betray and even kill? Unfortunately, Judas Iscariot waited for a convenient time to betray his Master. For that, he suffered a terrible pain and eternal regret in hell fire.
Do not betray the Lord in your word and in your action. The eyes of God see better than the best camera in the world. He sees what you hide from others. Don't do evil at all so that you will not suffer like Judas Iscariot.
