New Life on Sabbath

Had a lovely surprise on Sabbath morning yesterday to the arrival of two ewe lambs.  It was great timing as Brendan, Christina and the children were staying over, so we moved the ewes and lambs back into the main flock so Gulliver, the alpaca, could protect the lambs from foxes.   

I checked this morning and we have a third lamb born, although whether it is a ram or ewe I don't know. 

At least one of us is looking her best....
The stewardship of taking care of Yehovah's creatures is something we take very seriously. At times we've had to learn by our mistakes but our heart is to uphold Torah in spirit and in truth, and part of that is how we care for the land and its inhabitants.

This batch of lambs are sired by the young ram who escaped our attention last year.  However, he is now proven so we will be able to sell him, as well as his father, this month.  (getting a decent photo of these boys is proving to be quite a task)

I cut off Christina's head unfortunately, but I put this photo in as I wanted Yohanan to see himself on the blog.

Now that the top dam is half full we have two pairs of ducks who have made it home, and hopefully will lay their eggs when the time is right.  It's so nice to hear the frogs at night now also.

I have planted the two vegie raised beds and have plans to add to this as time permits. Little by little and step by step Hebron is taking shape.  Isn't it such a privilege to enjoy watching its growth, be part of its development, be matured by its challenges and to delight in its beauty.  Surely Yehovah and His Word is sufficient.

Unleavened Bread - 2024

For this small part of Yeshua's body, Healing to the Nations in South Australia, the last few months, including the past week of Pesach, has been ....well, different and unusual.  It has truly been a period of time where Father YHVH has been rooting and grounding us in His love, word and truth.  We gathered together at Hebron to keep the Pesach memorial and there was a stripping back.  No traditions, no add-ons, just Yeshua's Pesach and Yeshua's words.  The following day, the first day of Unleavened Bread, the Father's kindness and uncompromising truth was manifested amongst us.  It was truly a blessed time together.  Traditionally the week of unleavened bread will have an emphasis of dealing with the carnal ego, which is very apt, or the leaven of the pharisees, which is also very apt.  However, Paul emphasised that sin that is tolerated is also leaven that must be exposed and dealt with to ensure that the body of Yeshua is kadosh, which was emphasise...

Sukkot in the Adelaide Hills

  With the autumn feasts upon us I was reflecting on Sukkot last year and how the year since has been full of YHVH's blessings and encouragements.   The HTTN community purchased the property nearly 19 years ago and we have worked hard to develop it.  There is still much to be done so that it can facilitate the purposes that YHVH wants for it but He has proven Himself faithful to His word over the years.  Not a minute too late, not a minute too soon.   We are looking forward to celebrating Yom Teruah next week and then Sukkot a few weeks later.  Hebron will once again be filled with the sound of shofars, singing and laughter.  Yes, there have been times of weeping and even then He proves Himself merciful and faithful. Hallelu Yah!  

Shalom with Messiah

In a few weeks we will begin the next phase of the moed with Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot.  As with every year, we are eagerly anticipating this time with YHVH and the community in the Adelaide Hills.   One thing we say every year is that we long for the day when the wider Messianic community come together at Sukkot to celebrate with praise, feasting and fellowship.  It would seem that the Messianic community is relatively young and scattered in Australia and in the early days we would at times wonder if there was anyone else responding to the call to come out of the Christian church system and return to the ancient paths.  And of course there were and are. It's always so exciting when we meet another person or family who are on the same path and we can rejoice together.  We all have different stories, backgrounds and experiences but the common and binding truth is that YHVH is love and that love is expressed not only in His redemption but in the fullness o...
