Seeking God every day.
Tips & Tricks
Want to draw closer to God during 2020? The Bible App has lots of ways to help you do that. (With more coming in the year ahead.) Here’s one of the best ways to decide where you’d like to go next: look back down the road you’ve just traveled. Your YouVersion Snapshot shows you how many Plans you completed, Verses you highlighted, Verse Images you created, and more. And it’s super-easy to share with your friends!
Everyone loves getting a shiny new device during the holidays. They help us stay connected, explore our interests, take pictures and video, even pay for things. As you’re installing all your must-have apps (and helping relatives with theirs), don’t forget the apps that can actually help you and your family draw closer to God every day.

Lord, thank You for loving us so much that You gave Your Son for us, even before we loved You.
Thank You for inviting us into Your family.

This week’s Advent theme is joy: the praise-filled assurance that God is in control and working everything out for our good and His glory.
Take a moment to reflect on God’s goodness and fix your heart on Jesus with this prayer:
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for the joy that entered the world when Jesus was born.
Thank you for becoming God with us.
Lord, sometimes it’s difficult to live joyfully, especially in difficult or busy seasons.
Please purify our hearts this week and remind us that You’re in control.
Help us to consider it joy when we experience trials of any kind because we know You’re creating something beautiful and eternal.
As we fix our eyes and hearts on You, fill our souls with renewed strength, courage, and hope.
Lord, you are always worthy of being praised – and we want to worship You!
Amen
