New Year

I am sitting in the airport, next to my wife and I am mauling over everything that has changed in the last year. It is crazy that so much can change in a year. Often we reflect on the passing of another year, and we remember the good times as well as the bad times. This past year we had many great things happen in the youth ministry.

We had some great events, including camp, a lock in, and a trick or eat canned drive where we collected canned goods for families in area. We moved locations to a place that is more conducive to ministry.

There were some hard times that people are dealing with personally, but God still showed up in amazing ways through all the situations. As you reflect on the past year, and look forward to the upcoming year, see the things that the Lord has done in your life. Thank him for the wonderful things, and for being by your side during the hard times. Read Psalm 31, and hold onto the promise that the Lord is your refuge and your strength. God rejoices in your good times, and he comforts you in the bad. I hope that this next year is full of fun, joy, and change. Only the Lord can provide a positive way for all three of these things.

God Bless and Happy New Year
