On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples approached Jesus and said, \u201cWhere do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?\u201d He said, \u201cGo into the city to a certain man and tell him, \u2018The teacher says, \u201cMy appointed time draws near; in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with my disciples.\u201d\u2019\u201d The disciples then did as Jesus had ordered, and prepared the Passover. When it was evening, he reclined at table with the Twelve. And while they were eating, he said, \u201cAmen, I say to you, one of you will betray me.\u201d Deeply distressed at this, they began to say to him one after another, \u201cSurely it is not I, Lord?\u201d He said in reply, \u201cHe who has dipped his hand into the dish with me is the one who will betray me. The Son of Man indeed goes, as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed. It would be better for that man if he had never been born.\u201d Then Judas, his betrayer, said in reply, \u201cSurely it is not I, Rabbi?\u201d He answered, \u201cYou have said so.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Opening Prayer: <\/strong>Jesus, I am filled with sadness when I remember how Judas betrayed you. I\u2019m sorry for all the times when my own sins have caused you pain. Help me to trust in your Divine Mercy when I fall and come to you with a contrite heart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Encountering Christ:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<li><strong>The Wages of Sin: <\/strong>Judas was called to be an Apostle, one of Christ\u2019s chosen Twelve. What a tragedy that a man who was so close to Christ became his betrayer. Judas looked to gain something from his relationship with Christ: \u201cWhat are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you?\u201d (Mt 26:15). Sin causes us to trade our most priceless gift\u2014everlasting life\u2014for fleeting pleasures. In the end, Judas got thirty pieces of silver, such a pittance for the Son of Man. As St. Paul asks, \u201cWhat profit did you get then from the things of which you are now ashamed? [\u2026] For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord\u201d (Rom 6:21, 23). What do we want to gain from our relationship with Christ? Are the things we do meant to build up his kingdom in thanksgiving for the gift of everlasting life, or are they for our own glory?\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Denial and Despair:<\/strong> Judas answered Jesus\u2019 question about who would betray him with a deceitful question: \u201cSurely it is not I, Rabbi?\u201d (Mt 26:25). Judas is clearly lying here, but could he also be in denial about his betrayal? Later Judas despaired for his sin, and he committed suicide (cf. Mt 27:5). Denial and despair can be common reactions when we realize the gravity of our sin. The greatest tragedy of Judas was that he forgot God\u2019s merciful love. St. John Paul II wrote, \u201cMercy is the greatest of the attributes and perfections of God\u201d (<em>Dives in Misericordia,<\/em>13). When we have sinned, may we always look to God\u2019s mercy in the Sacrament of Reconciliation.\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Hour of Divine Mercy:<\/strong> Jesus announced, \u201cMy appointed time draws near\u201d (Mt 26:18). The hour of his Divine Mercy was approaching. It was the hour of his Passion and Death on the Cross when he fulfilled his mission of salvation for all who believe in him (cf. Rom 10:9-11). The holiest days of the year, the Easter Triduum, draw near. Let us prepare our hearts to enter into the mystery of our King and Savior\u2019s hour. May we honor his most merciful gift to us: his life that he gave \u201cas a ransom for many\u201d (Mk 10:45).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Conversing with Christ:<\/strong> O my Jesus, I marvel at your mercy. You, for whom all things were made, gave us everything because of your immense love for us. I am struck with wonder and gratitude. Please help me to trust in your Divine Mercy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Resolution:<\/strong> Lord, today by your grace I will plan to go to the Sacrament of Reconciliation this week if I have not already done so during Lent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carey Boyzuck is a wife, mother, freelance writer, and a lay member of Regnum Christi.
