Hello Friends!
I would like to take a moment of your time to thank you for 22 years of ministry at New Life. I know that my family and I are not leaving, and you will regularly see us around, but for me it is still an emotional adjust­ment. I know that most of you have had to have times in which you have showered grace on me. We have shared many joys and pains together. That’s what a “church family” does. I find myself not really wanting to think about the future and the changes that will be made because of all the fun we have had in the past. I know that God’s journey for me is helping youth workers in any way I can. Please be praying for these adjusting times for me and my family. One more thing… Thank you for all your support now, in the past, and in to the future.

I Love You!

Glenn

Crucify myself…. I am so surprised how often I am thinking about myself instead of others. Driving, buying, parenting, youth pastoring and even in my time with God I find myself at the center of my prayers. I read the word and filter it through what does this mean for me. What I am saying is I am sick of myself and God is sick of it, too.

I am thankful for who God is… (Take some time to think about this)

all Powerful, all knowing, all wise, great provider, giver of counsel, My Shepherd who disciplines, cares for me, leads me through the valley of death and helps me fear no evil. He is doing a custom work inside me (sanctified). He pulls me out of the pit of my sin (redeems). He is a complete forgiver. He is my Father that desires the best for me. He reigns Supreme and demands me to follow Him. He is a God who sacrifices and is mysterious. He is dangerous and unpredictable, but loves me in my broken, and undone state.

I can’t even tell you how in awe I am of you, God. Thank you for loving me and inviting me into an intimate relationship with you.

That all for now,

Glenn
