Summer Survival

By
When the sun beats down and the earth heats up, vigilance is our eagle's eye,
all the while humanity for Living Waters cry;
Fire trailer ready for action
Unexpected flowering in desert climes delight; 
Creator and created, testifying of His might.
Passionfruit's first flowering
 Daily bread and halakha, provisions of His love,
maintain an environment for the presence of His dove;
Provisioned and maintained workshop
 Covenental love and community ties provide,
safety and sustenance, where humility revokes pride;
Maintenance on the greenhouse and transplanting seedlings

 Each living stone integral to the other,
Messiah placing in His house, every sister, every brother;
Brendan's water tank level sensor

 While we wait for the Messiah's return and the age of peace,
faithful we'll remain until that great wedding feast.

Shalom in Yeshua our Messiah

    Now there's a novel approach, comment in verse, that not only tells the story of the day but also gives us a message of the Fathers love. Thanks Annette, John.

    You are a poet, Annette! I always look forward to ALL your blogs. Thanks for all your encouragements and reminders to keep keeping on. I reckon you could publish more articles and not only in blog formats but also in paper formats. :-) Thanks for keeping your watchful eye over Hebron. Have a great week till we meet! Love CP

Sukkot in the Adelaide Hills

By
  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!

Over a year ago Yakira and I dreamt of how Hebron's fellowship house could  be updated and better suited to how we functioned as a messianic community.    We could see a fellowship room that had room to easily accommodate people and all the instruments.  Of course there had to be room to wave branches during Sukkot and the odd flag or two as well!  Being of the creative ilk we also wanted it to be aesthetically pleasing and could see the HTTN logo painted on a wall.   The design of the logo has evolved over time to reflect the mandate that YHVH has set for this part of His body in Adelaide.  Sonya devoted many hours to bring to life the visual expression of that mandate and Yakira redesigned the logo.    Why so much attention to a logo and visual expression of the mandate?  Because we as a community of torah-loving disciples of Messiah Yeshua have hearts that hold dreams and promises that are bigger than us as individuals or even co...

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...
