I RUNNING FROM HOW GOOD OF A WRITER I AM FOR OVER 20 YEARS. ALWAYS PRAYED FOR PURPOSE.WRITING MY OWN QUOTES AND POEMS FOR YEARS. AND STILL FELT EMPTY. I FIGURED OUT THAT I WAS BEGGING AND ASKING GOD FOR THINGS I ALREADY HAD. I MADE A QUOTE" GOD GAVE ME A GLASS OF WATER SIT IT IN FRONT OF ME AND I FELT NOT WORTHY TO TAKE A SIP. IM GULPING NOW

I’m 56 and I am confronted with reinventing myself. I have a fine art background but have always wondered if God really need artists. Your video has been helpful in clarifying the decision.

Thank you. I'm 63 .

I also have a great desire to paint.. I don’t know if it’s from the Lord, I pray he makes it clear to me or maybe take a step of faith and He will correct me if I’m wrong .. may we all have open ears to listen to His guidance:)

I've struggled with this for over 15 years. I even prayed for God to help me to overcome or give up the desire to paint and draw. For 15 years I put my art supplies on the shelf and pursued other things but, I would still secretly envision myself painting and drawing. The desire never left. This year I had a dream I was drawing and painting so I began to question the decision I made 15 years ago, if it was really what God wanted for me surely the desire would have dissipated and the gift lost. However that was not the case so, I bought a small selection of Art supplies in hopes of just keeping it as a relaxing hobby. I came upon your video today and it has really encouraged me and confirmed to me that this gift is from God. I feel the Lord speaking to me through this video and I can finally see how God can even use an artist to glorify his name😊.

"Fruitful first..and then multiply" I like that

100% transparency I've been struggling quite a bit with this all while I'm trying to encourage others. I feel like a hypocrite or imposter but this video really blessed me. Thank you for sharing sir.

It's been a year since I am searching what God really wanted me to be. I was involved to lot of activities recently like schools, being a student leader and a theater artist (and I toom secondary education). I enter theater because I thought I will be able to do my passion by being a member and performing but as time goes by, I have this desire to really pursue being an artist. I wasn't so sure if this desire is worth it or if I can pursue it since I am a Christian. So, I was questioning the Lord if why is that I have this kind of desire and have this skill? Is it really for me? Until I found out this video and was able to understand that having this desire wasn't wrong. Now, I will work on it till I can receive the affirmation from God that this is really what he has designed me to be. Thank you so much for this. God bless you!

Great video and insight, thank you for sharing.

I've been an artist my whole life. From a young age I knew it was what I was meant to do, but the struggle has been real. I find myself once again stuck in a full time job behind a desk to pay my bills while my heart breaks a little more everyday and I'm depressed with no motivation to create. I cry out to God to show me the way, to help me fulfill my purpose as a an artist and creator. I have the talent that he gave me but I don't understand why it's not happening for me. I am a very good artist.

Thank you! This has been so encouraging. :D

Thank you, I needed to hear this!

Thank you. Just right word at just right time

Amen! This is so encouraging, even if it's a year old! Still relevant!

Amen! He literally answered this question last year. And I’m still holding on to His promise. ✨❤️✨🎨😃

Good stuff and we want what God wants never running from that i know who Jesus is I wouldn't be this strong within without him .. i was born for this moment and birthed in the church i ran but i came right back to the words of God ..smh Amen 🎤

Absolutely. It's amazing how God opens up seasons to advance us to his will for every stage of our lives. I'm happy to be lead to watch this podcast. It's a blessing to hear this.

I like this guy. He exudes joy

Wow thank you so much for this word!! God bless you!

Such a huge encouragement to me. IT HAS been my prayers and questions far too long. I am in one of your groups.

Thank you, Matt! Yes, it HAS been a very big encouragement to me!

Thank you Matt, I needed this...

So true

I just stumbled on your video while I was searching for some wisdom about " Do God call me to be a artist?". You got one of the best answer out there and its the kind of important topic that people don't really talk about. Thanks alot for you wisdom, may God bless you!

So happy to have stumbled across you on Facebook! (my OCD is freaking out about the bug on the wall at 5:17 though)

It's funny, I've been questioning my art as a talent and career a lot lately, well, more like about since covid hit especially. should I go back to the very corrupted corporate world and get back into corporate sales, or should I carry on. I do miss the corporate money but somethign kind of tells me to WAIT WAIT WAIT!! But my question is how long do I 'wait wait wait'? it's been 20 months now. So, I paint forward but eh! need increased encouragement. I will relisten to this and go back to your webpage and sign in and revisit al the video's I have from you. God bless you for being so encouraging @Matt Tommey and your team!

Hi Matt I'd like to thank you. For making videos like these. Then making them available. For folks like me. Who have the calling to be an artist. Yet still haven't found the means to achieve it.

I was a professional designer for 15 years, stay at home Dad for 20 and at 64 not sure where I’m at.

I'm 63 and have caught nothing but criticism and ridicule in church over being artistic. So yeah, I don't fit in. So I don't attend anywhere now. Just tired of being beaten down.

The church is a terrible place for artists. Lol. Ty for posting.

You are preaching a false gospel. Nothing you say is biblical. Twisting scripture to promote your own ideas is wrong.

Thank you 😊🙏, I'm kinda new to finding The Lord and it never ceases to amaze me how he actually is listening to me ( and why didn't I realise he always has 🥲🙏🇦🇺
