Today’s verse…

“Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me.”
Deeply distressed at this,

Reading I Isaiah 50:4-9a

The Lord GOD has given me
 a well-trained tongue,
That I might know how to speak to the weary
 a word that will rouse them.
Morning after morning
 he opens my ear that I may hear;
And I have not rebelled,
 have not turned back.
I gave my back to those who beat me,
 my cheeks to those who plucked my beard;
My face I did not shield
 from buffets and spitting.

The Lord GOD is my help,
 therefore I am not disgraced;
I have set my face like flint,
 knowing that I shall not be put to shame.
He is near who upholds my right;
 if anyone wishes to oppose me,
 let us appear together.
Who disputes my right?
 Let him confront me.
See, the Lord GOD is my help;
 who will prove me wrong?

Responsorial Psalm
69:8-10, 21-22, 31 and 33-34

R. (14c) Lord, in your great love, answer me.


For your sake I bear insult,

and shame covers my face.
I have become an outcast to my brothers,
 a stranger to my mother’s sons,
because zeal for your house consumes me,

and the insults of those who blaspheme you fall upon me.

R. Lord, in your great love, answer me.


Insult has broken my heart, and I am weak,

I looked for sympathy, but there was none;

for consolers, not one could I find.
Rather they put gall in my food,
 and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

R. Lord, in your great love, answer me.


I will praise the name of God in song,
 and I will glorify him with thanksgiving:
“See, you lowly ones, and be glad;
 you who seek God, may your hearts revive!
For the LORD hears the poor,
 and his own who are in bonds he spurns not.”

R. Lord, in your great love, answer me.

Gospel Matthew 26:14-25

One of the Twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot,
went to the chief priests and said,
“What are you willing to give me
if I hand him over to you?”
They paid him thirty pieces of silver,
and from that time on he looked for an opportunity to hand him over.

On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread,
the disciples approached Jesus and said,
“Where do you want us to prepare
for you to eat the Passover?”
He said,
“Go into the city to a certain man and tell him,
‘The teacher says, my appointed time draws near;
in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with my disciples.”‘“
The disciples then did as Jesus had ordered,
and prepared the Passover.

When it was evening,
he reclined at table with the Twelve.
And while they were eating, he said,
“Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me.”
Deeply distressed at this,
they began to say to him one after another,
“Surely it is not I, Lord?”
He said in reply,
“He who has dipped his hand into the dish with me
is the one who will betray me.
The Son of Man indeed goes, as it is written of him,
but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed.
It would be better for that man if he had never been born.”
Then Judas, his betrayer, said in reply,
“Surely it is not I, Rabbi?”
He answered, “You have said so.”

Reflection

Formed: Love of Money

In today’s Gospel, Judas haggles over the price of betrayal. In this interaction, Judas’ greed becomes clear. He loves money more than Christ himself. With Judas’ actions in mind, let us meditate on how we have valued material things over God. In what ways have we subordinated Christ to worldliness?

Today’s Action Item: Reflect on the ways that you love money more than God, becoming like Judas.

Daily Catholic Wisdom…

The good Lord does not do things by halves; He always gives what we need. Let us then carry on bravely.
St. Zelie Martin

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
Insightful and convicting readings and reflection… for I too have chosen my selfish ways and sin over You. Yet You still love and forgive me. Thank You Jesus, I’m sorry, I love You! May I never be like Judas again! Hear my cry.

Protect from ourselves, our sinful selfish nature. Teach us how to stay in Your presence where we are dead to ourselves and shielded in Your love and truths.
Thank You for hearing my prayers. For walking with me, mine and theirs.
Not my will, but Yours Lord God.
Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.
In Jesus name I pray.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Apostles (Nicene) Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Lords Prayer

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Glory be to the Father

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

O my Jesus

O my Jesus, have mercy on us. Forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Take all souls into heaven, especially, those most in need of thy mercy.
Amen.

Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen)

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Amen.

Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, make me holy. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, fill me with love. Water from Christ’s side, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. Good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds, hide me. Never let me be parted from you. From the evil enemy, protect me. At the hour of my death, call me. And tell me to come to you. That with your saints I may praise you. Through all eternity.
Amen.

Angelus

V. The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary.
R. And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with Thee;
Blessed art thou among women,
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
Pray for us sinners,
Now and at the hour of our death. Amen
V. Behold the handmaid of the Lord.

Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts, that we to whom the Incarnation of Christ Thy Son was made known by the message of an angel, may by His Passion and Cross be brought to the glory of His Resurrection. Through the same Christ Our Lord.
Amen.
