Bethlehem means House
of Bread in Hebrew or House of Meat in Arabic. Whichever you may choose it
speaks of Bethlehem as being a place of Provision. Thank God that from
Bethlehem came God’s Provision of a Saviour for us, His only beloved Son. Let
us Trust Him, even if there are those around us who oppose people who love
Jesus, keep Trusting Him.
