Two-fold Increase

 We have been blessed to have 11 lambs born to our 10 ewes, with a surprising majority of them being ewes.  A few of the ewes are too woolly so we'll be able to move those ones along and retain the ewe lambs in the flock.

Last Hebron weekend we tagged and vaccinated the lambs, and gave the ewes and ram a drench and shot as well.  The ram has been diligent in his role but unfortunately he's not the best looking specimen at the moment.  We'll keep him another year and move him on.

I've been adding to the little cubby town for the kids and Yakira gave the tee-pee a coat of paint.  Although I think maybe she enjoyed playing in the cubby!

We have a plan to develop the old chicken pen area into a lovely park area with little nooks to sit, meditate and enjoy the beauty of nature.

The first new planting was a little copse of silver birch.  Hebron has been transformed over the years from a blank slate to a lovely treed place of refuge.  Over the next few months we are looking forward to planting new gardens and installing the required infrastructure.

Hebron is our place of refuge and in the future I know it will welcome many more people to enjoy fellowship, be encouraged and meet with our Father YHVH.

With the uncertainty of how the weeks, months and years ahead will look like in regards to our ability to gather and the impact of world invents upon Messiah's qahal, we can be certain of His plans and the surety of His kingdom. 

Yes, it's a narrow path but oh, it's lined with beauty, blessings and a promise of more than a two-fold increase - we will be joining a great crowd of witnesses that have gone before us and together we will see our Great Hope standing in Jerusalem and ruling with justice and righteous.  When we fix our eyes on Yeshua and allow His love and shalom to envelop us everything else in this world fades in comparison.

May YHVH, the Maker of heaven and earth, be always exalted in our lives and in our midst.
