John 13: 2Now Jesus was deeply troubled, and he exclaimed, “I tell you the truth, one of you will betray me!” 22 The disciples looked at each other, wondering whom he could mean.23 The disciple Jesus loved was sitting next to Jesus at the table. 24 Simon Peter motioned to him to ask, “Who’s he talking about?” 25 So that disciple leaned over to Jesus and asked, “Lord, who is it?” 26 Jesus responded, “It is the one to whom I give the bread I dip in the bowl.” And when he had dipped it, he gave it to Judas, son of Simon Iscariot. 
27 When Judas had eaten the bread, Satan entered into him. Then Jesus told him, “Hurry and do what you’re going to do.” 28 None of the others at the table knew what Jesus meant. 29 Since Judas was their treasurer, some thought Jesus was telling him to go and pay for the food or to give some money to the poor. 30 So Judas left at once, going out into the night.

when I just read this.. I was thinking.. I wonder if they were whispering among each other.. Jesus and Peter and John.. LOL! that struck me as funny.... 
isn't it horrific.. that we would need to ask Him if we would be the one that will betray Him.. sadly.. we betray God all the time.. not intentionally I don't think but we are so focused on ourselves.. on our own happiness.. that we betray Him and what He actually wants from us for what we want for ourselves.. 
help me focus on You Lord and be pleasing to you at all times.. not only with my actions.. but with my thoughts.. amen..
