Sam Glazebrook’s final thought...
It's been nearly 4 years since my beginnings with EN, which started with a late night phone call from Ed asking if I wanted to drum in the band, which I'd vaguely heard of. From the first long, cold practice in a small church hall in Reading, to playing to big crowds in various events and countries, we knew God was in it and has been blessing us and pushing us forward in ways we could never achieve alone.
It hasn't been easy - the distance between band members has always required a lot of travelling, and there have been times of love, as well as times where all of our patience has worn thin, but either way, the boys have become quite a family to me, ever forgiving and accommodating of my constant fidgeting, forgetting (and eating). For example forgetting my passport halfway to the airport to fly to Sweden!
Now it's time for me to move on. God is ushering me in new directions, which requires me to step out of my comfort zone, and walk alone for a while. This is a challenge both relationally and spiritually for me as I continue to seek out God's path for my life - but it's really exciting! I've had an ace time writing songs, shooting music videos, playing gigs, and worshipping as part of EN, & this isn't 'goodbye', more of a 'see you around'. I'll be getting on a plane to California in September, to see what doors God has for me to open over there. It's something I feel God has been leading me into over the last few years - & now is the time to do it (if you live in California, drop me an email)
I have all the faith that God is going to do amazing things through EN, and I can't wait to see that happen. Keep a look out for the new music video (released Easter 2013), which may be the last one you'll see my face in!
God bless and see you on the road!
