You are Invited

Posted on September 25, 2018 by Mandy Hackland

Then Jesus replied, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!” (He meant Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, who, though one of the Twelve, was later to betray Him.) John 6:70-71

Today you are invited to consider these strong words from Jesus. You see they are aimed at Judas. Perhaps you breathe a sigh of relief. Yet are there times when you betray Jesus yourself? What happens when you are silent when people are using God’s name as a curse? Or when people are speaking against Him and you are silent? What happens when you hear His voice – and ignore it? What do you want to say to Jesus today in the light of these things? How does He reply?

May God bless you with a fresh sense of His forgiveness and an overwhelming sense of His love for you as you confess and repent of any occasions when you have rejected Him.

About Mandy Hackland

My love in life is to encourage others to deepen their relationship with God. I write devotional material, stories and small group studies with that in mind. I live in South Africa and also love spending time in the bush, bird watching and walking. I have moved to the coast and am enjoying the green spaces and beautiful vistas that surround me, reminding me of God's grace every day.
