Thankful for a New Life
My name is Gage and I am so thankful that God changed my life at Adult and Teen Challenge. Before I got saved, I was a selfish liar who only did what I wanted. I was a spoiled brat who didn’t want to be around anyone unless I could get something from them. I was miserable and always trying to figure out what drug could make me happy and fill the void in my heart. I didn't understand why they didn't fill the emptiness.
Then one day on a Sunday, I went to church and the message touched my heart. God began to tear the caullous off on my heart. I am so thankful that I found Adult and Teen Challenge. Since I’ve surrendered my life to Jesus Christ, I’ve learned it’s no longer my life, but Christ who lives in me and guides my paths.
I've given my personal rights over to Him, so it won’t be controlling my life anymore. I am building my relationship with Father. Everyday I work to draw closer to Him.
I thank everyone who gives to Adult and Teen Challenge. You have given me my chance at this new life in Christ.
There is always hope. That hope is found in Jesus Christ. Have a blessed Thanksgiving.
