Good Morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jesus said to Judas, \u201cFriend, do what you came for.\u201d Then they came and seized Jesus and arrested Him. -Matthew 26:50<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is where Judas betrayed Jesus and where the persecution started leading up to Jesus\u2019 death. So Judas went out of his way to go and find the Jewish leaders and planned to betray Jesus, accepted money for betraying Jesus, then went and got the crowd of people, found Jesus and pointed Him out to the crowd\u2026very much pre-planned, pre-meditated. What stuck out to me is that Jesus greeted him as a friend, literally calling Judas \u2018Friend\u2019. That is the God we serve, we don\u2019t serve a God that is just waiting until He can smite you, but a God that will call you Friend to the very end, even when you betray Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cJesus calls us into a love filled true friendship, not just a religion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cJesus calls us friends, not because of who we are or what we have done, but because of who He is.\u201d -Rich Wilkerson, Jr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Bro, can you pass me that leaflet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Brochure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a great Friday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good Morning!
