Matthew 21:17
The wisdom of Christ is always amazing to me. Bethany was his refuge. It was his place of rest. It was a temporary headquarters while away from Galilee. He is the Sovereign Lord of all, who has every place at his disposal, and yet he knows the need for a place of refuge. He understands that we need a place to call home. It is not wrong for us, in similar fashion, to have such places in our lives, as long as we may give them up if God calls upon us to do so.
Bible Reading: Genesis 20:1-22:24
