Where Your Treasure Is.....

Life has changed for our community and we are now split between two geographic locations - Salem and Mildura - with a few of us coming and going between them.
 
When the scripture says we are an 'unusual people', that certainly has an added layer for our community!  
 
 We are full of anticipation of what YHVH will pour out for the people of Australia, particularly the towns along the Murray River and Victoria.  
 
But coming home to Hebron is always so good for the soul.
Open skies - Open spaces
 
So lovely to see water in the top dam, grass emerging and 
paddocks been sown for this year's hay crop. 
 

 I have been reflecting more on the truth and freedom of Yeshua's command:
 
Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth, 
where moth and rust destroy, 
and where thieves break in and steal.  
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, 
where neither moth nor rust destroys, 
and where thieves do not break in or steal;  
for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 6:19-21 
 
The freedom and comfort of knowing that our lives and needs are all in the Father's hands, regardless of circumstances, regardless of feelings, is a priceless treasure.
 
As we invest our hearts, our time, our energy and our finances into His purposes, 
we are investing into His kingdom economy where the returns are eternal and we are filled to overflowing with His joy.
 
YHVH is faithful
 
He cannot break faith - He is not a man that He should lie!

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...

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...
