Our journal of what we pray is our sojourn of life along the narrow way, even the old paths, submitting to the Bible as a light unto both.

Providence’s Perpetuation Provisions: New Calf “Rafaela”

The Lord has graciously granted us a new little heifer calf! She got easily spooked one day, and ended up in a former cellar hole next to a shack that came with the property. At some point during that escapade, she injured her hoof; and it was bleeding. However, after several days, it seems she is getting around fine; and is even running around in the evenings.

Please say hello to Rafaela, which in Spanish means “healed of God”:

And here is a quick video:


We again thank God for His provisions, spiritual and temporal, and for His granting a heifer calf and increasing the herd.

    do you have any plans for all the goats? selling them, eating them, trading for other needs? Just curious! thanks

    Hi Ann,

    We plan on keeping the female goats as we plan to milk them; and the males we would like to trade for out-breeding purposes (or I suppose if we find the appropriate barter situation), or we plan to sell them.
