Scripture Text: Matthew 2:6
Why Bethlehem? Why not? When we think of Bethlehem, we tend to only think of the Nativity story. Think about it...when was the last time you thought of Bethlehem - or spoke of it - without including the Nativity Story? But if you think about it, Bethlehem was the perfect place for the birth of Christ.
Looking through the Old Testatment, we find the story of Jacob and Rachel, Naomi and Ruth, King David, and the prophecy from Micah, all relating to this tiny little village. Where would you have placed the birthplace of the Messiah? Jerusalem? Rome? Athens? Nazareth? Isn't it just like God to show up at the place you'd least expect?
Where will you "find" the baby this week?
