There are times when bone-weariness sets in. Not just your average tired that goes away with sleep but deep tiredness that fills not only your body but your heart and comes with a sense of heavy melancholy. It is not frustration or discouragement but just tiredness that has compounded over time.
There is a way to combat this weariness and that is to "come off by yourselves; take a break and get a little rest". Rest with Jesus.
And that is what Freedom Seed - the Pembertons - are doing. We have found our quite place and are setting aside a time to rid ourselves of outside commotion so that we can rest, and so we can listen.
Our place of rest is in Bemidji, MN, where we have been given an unfinshed cabin in the woods. We are keeping our hands busy by working on the cabin and the woods surrounding it. We are taking the time to breath the beautiful fall air and watch the colors change, to contemplate what has gone on the past few months and to set before the Lord the activities of the future, putting it all on hold until He has "fed" us.
We thank the Burns family who have given this cabin and piece of land, just like the Acts church who had all things in common, we have been sharing meals, work and fun with them.
Jasmine is still on crutches, 9 weeks as of Thursday and a couple more to go.
There will be several people coming up from Sioux Falls to visit and set aside some time in their lives to find what the Lord has next for them.
Before leaving Sioux Falls we bought a mini van that gets about 22 miles a gallon (think fuel conservation). It has already been a blessing and it holds a large place in our plans for the future. We were excited to be able to purchase it.
Tapestry will be going on tour with the Ryan Daniels, Remedy Drive, Sin-X (Matthias and Aubrey's band) from the 14 through the 24 of this month, a concert a night. Tapestry will also be adding a new member to the band for the tour, Joey Turner will be accompanying us as our acoustic lead guitar player, he is definitly an answer to prayer.
