What is the importance of family in celebration?

Exodus 12:26Then your children will ask, ‘What does this ceremony mean?’

Nehemiah 12:43Many sacrifices were offered on that joyous day, for God had given the people cause for great joy. The women and children also participated in the celebration, and the joy of the people of Jerusalem could be heard far away.

Esther 9:28These days would be remembered and kept from generation to generation and celebrated by every family throughout the provinces and cities of the empire. This Festival of Purim would never cease to be celebrated among the Jews, nor would the memory of what happened ever die out among their descendants.

As you celebrate the Lord with your family, you’re modeling the importance of the Lord’s presence in your life—sharing with your family all that God has done in the world, in the past, and for you personally and keeping those stories alive. This is the greatest inheritance you can give to your children and grandchildren; it is a treasure to be passed on to future generations.
