Does not Scripture say that the Messiah will come from David’s descendants and from Bethlehem, the town where David lived?”
John 7:42 NIV

Jesus, was born in Bethlehem, He is the baby born to take the Government on His shoulders. The expectation of a Messiah was a mighty ruling king, with power over everything. But, instead God in human form came from a virgin, was adopted by a carpenter and came into this world born in a ‘stable’ in Bethelehm, the most humble of situations.

Eventually He would would be the sacrifice, for all of us, beaten, bruised, battered, lashed all by choice, in innocents, laying it down. The sacrificial Lamb, so that we could have forgiveness of sins and eternal life.

The word Bethelehem means “house of bread”. Jesus’ body broken and remembered.  The bread of life, that sustains believers.

Hope everyone is having a blessed holiday! Continue to keep the reason for the season at the forefront!

With love, dlp
