When the holiday table brings old versions of everybody back

You are not required to keep repeating another person's sin.

Ezekiel 18:20

When the holiday table brings old versions of everybody back. Nobody puts that on a vision board, but people live it every day. Before action comes agreement, so notice what you are agreeing with. Old patterns gain power when they move faster than truth. Generational patterns may be familiar, but familiarity does not make them permanent. Let Jesus Christ teach you a different way where the family pattern has been automatic. You can make a different choice before you feel completely different. You need enough truth to refuse the familiar script one more time.

What would you choose if you were not trying to protect the familiar pattern? What would it look like to let truth challenge what is familiar?

Jesus Christ, expose the response I keep making without thinking. Make my mind steady and my heart teachable so I can choose obedience. Amen.
