Micah 5:2-5 highlights God's faithfulness in sending Jesus, the promised Shepherd-King, born in Bethlehem to bring hope, peace, and salvation to a broken world. Despite humble beginnings, Jesus reigns in majesty, offering peace that surpasses all understanding to those who trust in Him. This Advent season reminds us to rest in the fulfilled promise of His first coming and live in hope for His return - even in the midst of the darkness around us.
