Joel 1:1-3:21, Rev 1:1-20, Ps 128:1-6, Pr 29:18

Life moves fast—much faster than our souls were designed to run. Between responsibilities, noise, technology, and distractions, our minds rarely find quiet. Yet Jesus invites us into something radically countercultural: a secret place of stillness with Him. In this devotion, Keri Eichberger reminds us that solitude isn’t merely the absence of people—it's the intentional presence of God. True rest doesn’t come from binge-watching shows, scrolling endlessly, or escaping reality. It comes from withdrawing to be alone with the Lord, letting Him replenish what life drains. Solitude with God is a spiritual practice—a rhythm Jesus modeled throughout His earthly ministry. When we step away from the world’s constant chatter and allow silence to settle in, we make space to hear His voice again. We find peace, clarity, comfort, and spiritual renewal that no substitute can provide. And here's the beautiful thing: As we learn to savor God’s presence in private, His peace begins to follow us everywhere. Solitude becomes something we can carry within us—transforming busy rooms, chaotic moments, and overwhelming days. “But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” — Matthew 6:6 Main Takeaways Solitude isn’t isolation—it’s intentionally entering God’s presence. God desires to meet us in stillness, away from noise and distraction. Solitude strengthens our ability to sense God’s presence throughout everyday life. The secret place with God brings spiritual renewal, clarity, and rest. Practicing silence and prayer becomes a portable sanctuary for the soul. Today’s Prayer Glorious God, You are the sweetest gift of solitude. When I retreat from the noise of the world and quiet my heart before You, I find peace and nourishment that only You can give. I confess that I often turn to lesser things to soothe what only Your presence can heal. Teach me to prioritize stillness. Make solitude with You a regular rhythm of my life—one that becomes so natural that I can turn to You anytime, anywhere. Quiet my distractions. Relax my striving. Help me learn to savor Your holy, life-giving presence. Fill me with Your love, joy, and peace as I rest in You today. In Jesus’ precious name,Amen.

This year stretched me in ways I never expected. My heart ached throughout so much of 2025, but I also grew in ways I never thought I could. In this episode, I share the most meaningful lessons I learned about emotional healing, personal growth, faith, relationships, and learning to sit with discomfort instead of running from it. We talk about the difference between processing and obsessing, why seeking peace through information and understanding eventually falls short, and how Scripture points us toward a peace that doesn't rely on clarity or control. I also unpack how loneliness isn't always about lacking people, but about the deeper fear that no one truly has you—and how faith reshapes that belief. We explore why venting can sometimes keep us stuck in anger rather than move us toward healing, and how prayer, stillness, and honesty with God invite real transformation. This episode is for anyone who: has walked through heartbreak or disappointment this year feels lonely even when surrounded by people struggles with complaining and feeling pessimistic  is exhausted from overthinking, people-pleasing, and overprocessing wants to heal from trauma without becoming hardened or bitter is learning to trust God in seasons that don't make sense Topics covered: Emotional healing and personal growth, even after being crushed by another person The power of accountability and being seen by community  Loneliness, attachment, and feeling unseen Prayer vs. Gossip and Complaining  Faith vs control and the peace of God Choosing growth, forgiveness, and discipline of thought Learning to be okay with being alone, healing with God instead of distracting or running.  Read the Blog Post Here Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE for more episodes like this!  If you enjoyed this conversation, please rate and review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251209dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah: “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.'” Matthew 3:1-3 Ready Your Heart for Jesus! When I was a kid, I remember that we got the word that the President of the United States was coming to town. And, somehow or another, we even heard that his motorcade was going to be driving down the street right by my house. We were so excited! Our family waited by the sidewalk, looking down the road with anticipation, and then, sure enough, a procession of vehicles came whizzing by, with the president’s hand (or some unlucky staffer’s) waving to us! When a president or, in ancient times, a king, comes to town, you need to make preparations. You must get the road ready for his arrival. That is the picture we see in the message of God’s Word we’re looking at for our devotion. A great king is coming to town, and the road needs to be cleared. “Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.” John’s whole purpose in life was to prepare the world for Jesus. He was the opening act who came onto the scene just before the headliner. And the way he got everyone ready was by preaching to them. He preached God’s Word to them. With that Word of God, he shook them with his call to prepare their hearts. That call is still applicable to you and me. Our hearts are often filled with things that don’t please God. We prioritize things that don’t really matter. We go our own way rather than listening to God’s Word. But John calls us to repent, to prepare our hearts! Turn away from that sin which so often entices your heart and turn to Jesus who has paid for it with death. Turn your heart to God with joy and see the forgiveness so freely given in our Savior. Ready your heart for Jesus! Prayer: Dear Jesus, thank you for taking away my sins. Help me to turn away from my sin each day and turn to you to find forgiveness and peace. Amen.

Some people seem born with the gift of hospitality. The moment you step through their doorway, peace meets you like a warm blanket. The room smells inviting, your needs are anticipated, and the details have been thoughtfully arranged with love. Many of us admire these “natural hostesses,” even if we don’t see those qualities in ourselves. Alicia Searl shares honestly that hosting doesn’t come as easily for her anymore—especially now that the holidays feel heavier, the gatherings larger, and the expectations higher. When she learned it was her turn to host Christmas, her first reaction wasn’t joy but stress. Yet the Lord softened her heart and reminded her of something far more important than décor, menus, or perfect planning: Hospitality is ultimately about peace, not presentation. In Luke 10, Jesus sends out seventy-two disciples with one simple instruction upon entering a home:“First say, ‘Peace to this house.’”No elaborate preparations. No expectations. Peace was the first gift exchanged. If peace rested there, they were to stay, share meals, and bring the good news of God’s kingdom. If not, the peace simply returned to them, and they moved on. Simple. Sacred. Purposeful. Hospitality is one of the primary ways believers embody the heart of Christ. Whether our homes are large or small, tidy or lived-in, beautifully decorated or simple, we are called to cultivate atmospheres where peace dwells. Our mission field begins at our front door.The people who enter our homes—and the homes into which we enter—should encounter the peace of Christ through us. This season, whether you’re hosting Christmas, visiting relatives, or gathering with neighbors, you have the opportunity to bring peace into every room you enter. Today's Bible Reading:“When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you. Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you… Do not move around from house to house.” – Luke 10:5–7 Main Takeaways True hospitality is not about perfection—it's about peace. Jesus instructs us to bless homes with peace before anything else. Our homes can become places of ministry through simple, Christ-centered welcome. The peace of Christ rests where hearts are open, and it returns unharmed where it is not. Peace on earth begins with peace exchanged between believers in everyday relationships. Let’s Pray Father God, Thank You for giving us a beautiful model of hospitality through Your Word. Help us to release the pressures of hosting and instead focus on welcoming people with Your peace. Soften our hearts toward every person who enters our home and every home we enter this season. Teach us to greet others with grace, truth, and love. Fill our homes with Your presence so they may radiate peace on earth in the most ordinary and sacred ways. Let the atmosphere within our walls reflect the hope we have in Christ, and may our hospitality become a testimony of Your goodness. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Luke 1:39–45 - [39] In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah, [40] and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. [41] And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, [42] and she exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! [43] And why is this granted to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? [44] For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. [45] And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.” (ESV) THE EVENING MINDSET IS COMING!

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251208dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” Matthew 3:1-2 Something Has Got to Change Something has got to change. Have you ever thought that? You might have thought that about your marriage or your relationship with your kids. You probably have thought that about your job or a working relationship with a coworker. At some point in your life, you have probably said that about something going on in government. Something has got to change. I would suspect, however, that when we’ve had this thought, often, we think this change should happen in someone else. Someone else needs to be fixed. Someone else needs to turn things around. After all, wouldn't the world just be better if everyone thought like I do and did things my way? But before we try to change everyone else, it might be helpful if we first look in the mirror and see if there are things about ourselves that need to be changed. That's really the message that God teaches us through the voice of John the Baptizer. If you had to summarize, John’s whole message, it would be this: repent. Repentance has two parts: 1) to acknowledge shortcomings, failures, and guilt, and then 2) to turn to Jesus and find forgiveness. You and I can’t change the hearts of other people. But God can and does change our hearts! Through the voice of John, God is calling for you and for me to look at our own lives and be honest about where we fall short, where we have done wrong, not just against others but against God. But in that call to repentance, God beckons us to lift our eyes to see the Savior who has forgiven us of our faults! That’s what Jesus has done for you! You don’t have to live in shame or fear for your faults. No, Jesus has paid for them with his sacrifice! Recognize your guilt but turn to Jesus and find that peace of forgiveness! Prayer: Dear God, I am broken and am truly sorry for my sin. Thank you for sending me my Savior who loves me and forgives me. Continue to help me daily repent and see the peace which Jesus brings. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License.
