Living Quarters

A new season of Yahweh is here yet again and we begin with quite the opener. Due to a tree looming just behind Hiding Place that looks like it might just tip over at any given moment, we have been relocated to the Boys' Dorm. All 5 of us will be moving in with Anderias, Ishak, and Daniel Chai together not in the same room, but in the same location. Perched on a smaller hill than the Hiding Place, it is much more wider and is slightly a longer journey to the sanctuary than it previously was. But there's no need for us to complain. You know, when our leaders told us that we would be leaving behind our air conditioned and well kept house on a hill for a dormitory just beside the expansive forest there were many, many feeble Hallelujahs going around. I think I was the only one genuinely excited about staying at the Boys' Dorm at that moment. But once we moved in and settled down somewhat the other boys quickly came to terms with it and began to make the most out of this whole turnabout.

That's how it ought to be. As sons of Elohim we eat what is served on our platter and leave no morsel unfinished. Even if it's bitter or somewhat under cooked we finish it because it is not only expected of us but we know that dessert will always be wonderful in the end. This is a figure of speech by the way.

[Phi 4:11] Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

[1Th 5:18] In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of יהוה in the Messiah Yeshua concerning you.

[Rom 8:18] For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

Not that something as trivial as this could be counted as suffering but what I'm trying to do is to show that there's no need for us to pull a horse face. We are blessed to be able to move to the Boys' Dorm because we know that wheresoever we go we will be a blessing to those around us. We shall see the Boys' Dorm changing bit by bit, little by little and soon enough it will become yet another Hiding Place for us boys. In truth, it is much more than I had expected. I find myself liking that place. Then again I have had worse accommodations before so there really is no use to murmur or grumble. A bed, some food, a roof over our heads is more than enough to make someone like me real content. After all:

[1Ti 6:6] But reverence with contentment is great gain.

[1Ti 6:8] And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

It's good for us to dwell together. It's even better for us to dwell together in unity. And surely with this move that is exactly what I shall see happen in the name of Yeshua. This is truly the beginning of something awesome that the Holy Spirit shall accomplish in and through all the boys. Praise Yahweh!

[Psa 133] Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there יהוה commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
