Betrayal--The Power of Suggestion

The lesson in my Sunday School class today had Jesus, sitting at the Passover meal with His disciples. After settling a dispute about who would be the greatest, washing their feet and explaining servanthood, He said to them, "One of you will betray me." Though I have betrayed Christ, I can't imagine being in that room. I am the person who when at WalMart, and the person on the PA system says, "Security, scan aisle 15," looks around to see which aisle she is on. So if I had been the the room when Jesus announced that one present would betray Him, I would have been combing through my mind and motives. I wonder if this comes from being the youngest child. My sister says I was the "perfect victim."
