Spy Wednesday



Spy Wednesday is the day when Judas Iscariot gathered with the Sanhedrin and plotted to betray Jesus for 30 silver coins.  Judas is the Disciple we never want to imitate.  He betrayed Jesus for material things - money.

In today's world, we sometimes get caught up with consumerism.  We want want and want.  Companies market to us all kinds of things and in a sense brainwashing us to think that we need them.  We sometimes forget God.  We don't pray or go to Mass because we are busy using our gadgets, cell phones and what not.

Let us meditate on where we stand before God.  Are we like Judas seeking silver coins?
