Usama Nicola shares this:

"Life in Bethlehem is growing heavier by the day. Every morning, as we try to hold on to some routine, some shred of normalcy, my children look at me with tired eyes and ask: "Why are we still here? Let's leave. Why don't we just migrate?

They say it every single day now. And every single day, my heart breaks a little more.

Gott beginnt Großes oft im Kleinen. Aus unscheinbaren Orten wächst Hoffnung, die weiter reicht als unsere Zeit. Der verheißene Herr kommt nicht mit Lärm, sondern nahe, arm und treu. Wo übersiehst du Gottes Anfang im Kleinen? #Losung #Microandacht #Bethlehem #Ewigkeit

Christ Jesus does not have many followers in Bethlehem today.

When Jesus was a baby, an angel warned Joseph to take the child and his mother, and escape from Bethlehem, because the king was planning to kill him. While the king did not find him there, he killed other babies in Bethlehem instead.

Jesus never lived in Bethlehem again. That place was hostile toward him.

Bethlehem, West Bank, Palestine.

The city where Christ was born.

But it is now besieged by thousands of illegal Israeli settlement units being built on its land.

The Palestinian flag however still flies proudly in the compound of the Church of the Nativity.

Quote of the day, 4 May: St. John of the Cross

The Virgin, weighed
with the Word of God,
comes down the road:
if only you’ll shelter her.

Saint John of the Cross

Poetry, 13, “Christmas Refrain”

Original Spanish text:

Del Verbo divino
la Virgen preñada
viene de camino:
¡si le dais posada!

John of the Cross, St 1991, The Collected Works of St. John of the Cross, rev. edn, Kavanaugh, K & Rodriguez, O (trans.), ICS Publications, Washington DC.

If Joseph had to go back to #Bethlehem to be taxed because his family was from there, why couldn't he have stayed with relatives? Why did #Jesus have to be born in a stable? Could he and #Mary have not made hotel reservations in advance? Joseph was a carpenter in #Galilee, which was a different province than #Judea--did he need to be double taxed like Americans do when they live abroad? Ah yes, these are the #bible questions that are on everyone's mind, I'm sure.
