Wintery Days

By
Despite some wild and wet days last week our four newcomers are doing well.  We have three ewe lambs and one that I haven't been able to check whether it's a ewe or ram.  As I watch the flock wandering the paddock it's easy to recall the Psalms and parables of Yeshua and be encouraged.

To enjoy and be in Yehovah's creation is a blessing that we can always take for ourselves.  The mystery of the fullness of His redemptive love can be felt in part through the restorative healing, encouragement and hope that fills our souls when we go outside, breath deeply and view the beauty - whether it be rolling hills, the vastness of the ocean, watching birds feed in our backyard.

How blessed are we to have this acreage of Hebron to enjoy, develop, express community and celebrate Yehovah's set apart days and festivals.  I see our home paddock filled with caravans, tents and fellow sojourners who have travelled from afar to celebrate Sukkot together.  There will be laughter, music, meals, fellowship, prayer, praise and reading of Torah.  Each year we have grown in our understanding, faced challenges but above all, felt the shalom that testifies that yes, His ways are higher than ours.  How great is Yehovah!

Joy Comes in the Morning

By
  For over a year South Australia and Victoria have been in drought.  Dams are dry, crops have failed and trees are dying.   When the community bought the property 19 years ago we invested in sinking a bore to ensure water security.  The water quality is good enough to water the stock and our gardens.  We also have large rainwater tanks which have kept water to the house.  However, if the drought had of continued we would have hooked the house up to the bore water as well.    We had stored enough hay to feed our sheep and alpacas and they were well fed.  Investment in the infrastructure has been a big expense in both finances and labour over the years, but it's in years like this that it's well worth it.  It brings so much joy to see the green grass and gardens when the paddocks are bare and dry.   Praise YHVH, the rains came last week!   We have received 40ml over the last couple of weeks and more is on the...

Sheep of His Pasture

By
The guys have been out fixing fences so that our flock can move into the paddock.  The roos have a tendency to break fences and dig holes so it's an ongoing chore unfortunately.  Whilst it's rather nice to see them out in the paddocks, and to see when the joeys emerge from the pouch, it can be frustrating as well. Moving the flock into a different paddock is always one of my favourite things to do because you get to give them a closer check and they're always excited about going into a fresh paddock.   So late in the afternoon last Friday I thought, why not share it with you as well.  Enjoy a quick visit to Hebron and I pray that wherever you are, in whatever pasture our Father YHVH has you, that you are blessed and experiencing His overshadowing kindness.

Pesach 2025

By
It was such a blessing for our community to come together at Hebron  for the Pesach meal and the first day of unleavened bread.   We are not a big community in the Adelaide Hills but we are testifying that  Yeshua is the Messiah and walking in His ways.  There are so many individuals or families that don't have a Messianic fellowship that they can be part of because of geographic distances - or even theological distances.  Our desire is to see Messianic fellowships form and develop in many more parts of Australia so that the sheep of His pasture are fed, nurtured and protected. The Good News of Messiah and His kingdom has been hidden and misconstrued since the early times but the Ruach is revealing truth - the truth that sets His people free.      So as we come together in obedience to observe the moed, whether it's a couple here or a big fellowship over there, we are encouraged and built up in Him as we run the race that He has set before ...
