Welcome back to the kitchen table. If Bethany could tell her younger self one thing, it’s this: Your calling isn’t a role you play but a position you hold. That truth would have helped her walk more securely, breathe easier, and release the pressure to hold everything together.
Bethany loved her career. She thrived in it. Then her path shifted, and suddenly, she was “just a mom.” Losing that title felt like losing a part of herself. But her identity was never in her job—just like it isn’t in being a mom or a wife. These are roles, not identity. They’re assignments for a season, not definitions of who she is.
When we tie our identity to what we do, change feels like a crisis. But Colossians 3:17 reminds us, “And whatever you do, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus.” Our work matters, but it doesn’t define us. We belong to Christ, and that never changes.
