Inconvenient Truth

Boys honing their archery and shooting skills

We have seen the horrific and evil devastation of the attack on Israel, and the resulting war in the Gazan region, and cannot but be driven to prayer and tears. The hatred and myopic response from many across the world towards Israel is illogical and entrenched demonised thinking. I won't provide a political or spiritual commentary (you can refer to John's recent message for an excellent summary on that front), but I do want to state clearly that the same illogical hatred and myopic thinking is directed towards anyone who stands for Truth and truly follows the Way of Yeshua the Messiah.

With Christmas upon us the demarcation is clear and provides an opportunity for the light of Truth to shine to our families and communities. It's usually not a popular message, and it does come with an element of sacrifice, but compromise emboldens the enemy of our souls. May the Ruach ha Kodesh inflame our courage and conviction.

Team work and new skills

The last few months have been busy at Hebron with seasonal events like the alapaca shearing - and yes, Pablo decided to once again be all dramatic about it. The hay has been cut, baled and sold and now it's time to control the weeds and manage the feed for our stock of sheep. Next month we will process a batch of wethers and fill our freezer.

There is always a plethora of tasks and projects to be completed and these get completed as our small community has time, resources and available hands. It is our desire that as we develop and enjoy this rural community property that it testifies to the greatness of YHVH, and the truth and beauty of Torah. Hebron is one avenue by which we are matured and strengthened on this journey as the Ruach prepares us for whatever lies ahead. We look forward to the day when many others come to celebrate the feasts here and leave enriched with the Word of Truth and encouraged by the hand of friendship.

Joy Comes in the Morning

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

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

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 ...
