Betrayal
I am reading about Judas betraying Jesus in my quiet time this morning. I realized that I don't quite understand the word ‘betray’—so I looked it up in the dictionary.

betray, v.t.
1. to deliver into the hands of an enemy
2. to help the enemy

There's a whole bunch more, but that second one stopped me in my tracks. Any time I am not obeying God, I am betraying him—I am helping the enemy. In other words, I am serving satan when I am not actively serving God. When I am apathetic to the things of God, I am furthuring the work of the devil. Wow.

Lord,
Help us all to be receptive to your whispers. Help us to be obedient to your will. Help us to actively serve you in everything we do, from the the smallest task to the largest. From washing the dishes to choosing a life path. We cannot do anything without you, and we must, for our sake and yours, do everything for you. Amen.
