78: When to Keep, Tweak, or Let Go: Navigating Traditions
Manage episode 441590766 series 3459896
Welcome back to another episode of the More Than Enough Podcast! Today we are diving deep into the topic of traditions, especially as we enter the cozy fall and holiday season. We’re chatting about why traditions are so important and how they can become a grounding, life-giving part of our families, whether they're big, elaborate rituals or small, everyday moments.
We start off by reflecting on how traditions often resemble routines but on a grander scale. They’re more than just habits—they’re intentional practices that can provide a sense of stability and belonging, especially in a fast-paced world.
One of the biggest takeaways for us is that traditions don’t always have to stay the same. Sometimes, what once brought joy might start to feel like a chore, and that’s okay! It's a sign that it's time to adjust or even let go.
We also touch on the importance of inviting God into our traditions. This is a big one! By asking Him to guide us in choosing which traditions to keep or let go of, we can make sure they’re truly life-giving and not just another thing to check off our to-do list. We share how sitting with God and seeking His vision can help create traditions that not only ground us but also draw us closer to Him.
We challenge you to take a moment this week to reflect on your own traditions. What are the ones that bring you joy? Are there any that might need tweaking or letting go? And if you’re looking to start something new, don’t be afraid to sit with God and ask Him to guide you in creating traditions that will bring life and joy to your family.
