  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - December 31st - Luke 2:37-38
    Luke 2:37-38
    [Anna] never left the Temple but stayed there day and night, worshipping God with fasting and prayer. She came along just as Simeon was talking with Mary and Joseph, and she began praising God. She talked about the child to everyone who had been waiting expectantly for God to rescue Jerusalem.
    In this part of Luke’s gospel, our eyes are focused on Jesus and his young parents. A new day had dawned that was full of hope for the future. It is important, however, that it was two old people, Simeon and Anna, who recognised the significance of his birth. They had lived so close to God that they were ready for this moment.
    Age can change people in very different ways. Anna had only been married for seven years before her husband died. She was now an old woman and had been a widow for many decades. She could have become sour and cynical with the passing of time, but her life was clearly focused upon God. She spent her days in the temple worshipping God, and this meant she was spiritually alert and quick to see what he was doing. In this beautiful moment, she came alongside Simeon as he spoke with Mary and Joseph and joined in the celebration.
    At the time, there were godly people, who were known as The Quiet in the Land. They devoted their lives to prayer and waited patiently for God to come. Simeon and Anna were such people, and their godly example should inspire us today. Over the years, I have met many older people who, as their mobility has decreased, have increasingly devoted themselves to prayer. I have been so grateful for their godly influence and encouragement and delighted that they haven’t gone the way of so many in becoming increasingly grumpy and negative with the passing of time.
    As we get older, let’s allow Simeon and Anna to set the standard for how we should serve God: always prayerful, expectant and full of praise.
    Question
    As you get older, what are you going to do to ensure that you become increasingly prayerful?
    Prayer
    Loving God, thank you for the wonderful example of people like Simeon and Anna. Help me to get closer to you and become more gracious and loving as I get older. Amen

  • The Thriving Christian Artist - Why Your Art Makes God Smile Every Time

    Send us a text

    Get Your 31 Biblical Affirmations for Christian Artists: https://thrive.matttommeymentoring.com/31-biblical-affirmations 

    What if your studio time is the place God loves to meet you most? We explore a life-giving shift for creatives of faith: your art brings God joy not because it’s perfect, but because it reflects His image, welcomes His presence, and flows from desires He planted in you.

    We start with identity. You’re made in the image of a Creator who imagines and forms—so when you create, you mirror His heart. A tender story about a father and son in the studio reframes God’s posture toward your work: delight over measurement, presence over performance. That lens begins to heal the pressure many of us carry from teachers, leaders, or inner critics, and it restores the simple joy of showing up to make.

    From there we dig into process. God cares more about being with you than the product you produce. Scriptures like James 1:17 and Zephaniah’s song over us replace the voice of a taskmaster with a Father who rejoices. The studio becomes a sacred meeting place, not a factory. We talk about creative flow as grace in motion—joining what God is already doing so your work feels lighter, freer, and more aligned with how you’re designed.

    Finally, we tackle desire and trust. Psalm 37:4 and the promise of a new heart in Christ invite you to believe that your creative passions aren’t random or suspect. Double-mindedness breeds paralysis, but trusting Spirit-shaped desires brings clarity and courage. You’ll hear practical encouragement to drop striving, step into your practice with faith, and watch joy return as you create from overflow.

    If this speaks to you, share it with an artist who needs freedom today, subscribe for more encouragement, and leave a review to help others find the show. Then tell us: where do you most sense God’s pleasure when you create?

  • Curiously Kaitlyn - Did the Father Forsake the Son on the Cross? (HP+ Vault)
