Day 5: Creating New Traditions of Presence
Reading: Deuteronomy 6:4-9
Devotional: God instructed Israel to make His presence central to daily life—talking about Him at home, on the road, lying down, and rising up. This wasn't about adding religious activities but weaving God's presence throughout ordinary moments. You can start new Christmas traditions that prioritize presence: family devotions during Advent, praying together before bed, eating together five nights a week, or simply slowing down to notice God's work around you. Don't wait until next year to regret missing this Christmas. Start today. What one new tradition could you begin that would help your family be more present with each other and with God? The greatest gift you can give isn't wrapped in paper—it's the gift of your full, undivided presence.
