NO ROOM
AT THE INN:
JESUS’ BIRTH

L U K E
CHAPTER 1

In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. And everyone went to his own town to register.
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

A manger or trough is a rack for fodder, or a structure or feeder used to hold food for animals. The word comes from the Old French mangier (meaning “to eat”), from Latin mandere (meaning “to chew”).

In John 6:35, Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.”

Latin mandere

From which mandible surely arises.

Whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.

He meets all our needs.................

inspiration to continue your ministry

That is indeed the crux of the matter, Alba, and I can report there is no shortage of it--quite the contrary.
