Bethany – v2

Not Bethlehem
where he was born
nor Nazareth where he grew up
not Capernaum where he preached
certainly not Jerusalem
His place of trial
wanting to be Bethany
a place of comfort

A safe place for Jesus
a refuge with friends
one who would not pressure
no magic tricks, no demons,
a place of refuge, not challenge,
Bethany, their home,
returning their often
on His journey home.
