Notes from the Shepherds Chapel...

We are born into a troubled world in a troubled age. An age which is a wrestling ground for our fathers. So, the children who are born innocent of women have to make his or her mind up if they are going to follow God or Satan. When you follow he that quickens you or, the prince that is the power of evil, it's-your choice no one can make your mind up for you. You are a free citizen in this earth. It is your mind that must be made up which would you follow. And quite frankly when you allow yourself to fall upon the comforter whereby he can comfort you , he can stand between you and the problems of this world to cushion you and protect you. When you accept the Holy Spirit, the Evil Spirit will run from you. That is exactly the way it is so, the choice is yours and must freely be made by you and no one else.

They were only supposed to grow 18 feet but at the time of removal they were 30 feet. Needless to say their roots were tickled pink to be on top of the septic tanks. I had to remove the landscaping because the roots of our 70' tall gorgeous bald cypress tree had invaded the septic tanks. Whatever I chose to put in place of the previous landscaping had to have shallow roots. So, for the first season I decided to put down some native wildflower mix I purchased from the Wildseed Farm in Fredericksburg. http://www.wildseedfarms.com/ I also put
