Welcome back to the kitchen table. Sharing Jesus with our kids isn’t about giving them a perfectly structured lesson or the "right" words. It’s about living it out—showing them what it means to walk with Him, not just talking about it.

But let’s be honest. It feels hard sometimes. We wonder if they’re really listening, if we’re saying too much or not enough. We don’t want it to sound like another lecture.

2 Corinthians 4 reminds us of what we’re actually called to as moms. Not to have all the answers. Not to force faith into perfect little moments. But to reflect Jesus in how we love, in how we respond, in how we turn back to him again and again.

And when it feels like you’re losing heart—when you’re unsure of what the future holds or if anything you’re doing is making an impact—remember this: Don’t lose heart.

Go back to the one who is your source. Let him fill you so that what overflows into your kids is not pressure or perfection, but faith that is real and alive.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Motherhood can feel overwhelming, with constant worries about the future and whether we're doing enough. But in those moments, we can cling to one powerful truth: God has a plan for us and for our children. His outcome is perfect, and that’s where our hope rests.

When we trust in God's plan, we find peace and experience motherhood in a radically different way. So how do we do this?

It’s simple: turn to God's Word. The Bible gives us truths to reset our hearts and minds:

Your True Value:

You are God’s beloved child, and your worth isn’t defined by your circumstances. Romans 8:16

You Are a New Creation:

Through Christ, you are made new. 2 Corinthians 5:17

You Are Freed:

You are freed from the weight of perfection. Romans 6:11

God Is Faithfully at Work:

God is always transforming you, even when you don’t see it. 2 Corinthians 3:18

We Can Overcome Strongholds:

God gives us the power to overcome fears and doubts. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5

Nothing Can Separate Us from God’s Love:

His love for you is unshakable. Romans 8:38-39

These truths help us walk through motherhood with peace, trusting that God’s plan is always better than our own.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Motherhood can feel like an ongoing cycle of giving and waiting, with moments of discouragement about whether it’s all paying off. Bethany recently shared a powerful comparison: the pecan tree. A pecan tree doesn’t bear fruit until 10-14 years old, and it’s only fully fruitful after 18-22 years. 

Just like a pecan tree, your child is in process, and you are investing in their growth each day. It’s easy to feel discouraged when you don’t see immediate changes, but remember: you are investing for a lifetime. You don’t control your child’s growth, but God does.

James 5:7-8 reminds us to be patient in the process. Patience isn’t about immediate outcomes but about trusting God and remaining committed to the journey. While we may not see the fruit right away, we can rest assured that God is at work, both in our children’s hearts and our own. So, when you feel discouraged, think of the pecan tree—slow, steady growth is happening, and the fruit will come.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Do you ever struggle to see your children the way God does, feeling stuck in your own perspective? Comparison, frustration, and the pressure of outcomes creep in so quickly.

So how do we shift?

2 Peter 1:2 says, “Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.” But grace and peace don’t come from control—they come from knowing him. And knowing him means making space to hear him.

Sometimes, we just need to pause. Not react. Not fix. Just sit with Jesus.

Pausing helps us see where our worship is misplaced. Are we worshipping an outcome more than we’re worshipping him? Today, let’s pause. Let’s sit with him. Let’s see through his eyes.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Where is your favorite place to escape to? What is your happy place—the spot where you feel most connected to God, where your nerves calm, and your heart finds peace? Maybe for you, it’s the beach, or a quiet corner of your home.

As a mom, Bethany often thinks, "If I could just go to the beach, maybe I could do this day better." But the truth is, God is offering to be our safe space every day.

Psalm 62:5-8 reminds us that God is our rock—our true refuge. We don’t have to go somewhere special to meet him. He's right here, offering rest and quiet when we trust in him.

There have been many times when Bethany has wanted to make a place her refuge—believing it would bring her peace. But when she forgets that God is her ultimate place of rest, he gently calls her back to him, reminding her that he is the place where she can truly reset.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Motherhood can feel overwhelming, leaving you searching for answers and reassurance. But God’s leadership isn’t harsh or demanding—it’s gentle.

Psalm 25:9-10 and Isaiah 40:11 remind us that God’s heart is tender toward mothers. He invites us to seek him first, knowing that he will gently lead us through each step.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone—he is near, guiding you with love and patience.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Maybe you’ve asked, What if God doesn’t listen? Let me reassure you—he does. Psalm 66:19 and Psalm 116:1-2 remind us that God hears our prayers and is always attentive to us. He listens to every cry, every request, and every silent prayer.

God knows the burdens you carry as a mother. He knows the things you struggle with and invites you to bring them to him. Don’t ever doubt that he is listening—he hears every word, and he is always there for you. Call on him, and trust that he is near.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. When conflict arises, it’s easy to feel lost, wondering what’s truly going on with your child. But God cares about your child’s heart and invites you to ask him for insight. In Isaiah 42:16, God promises to guide us, especially in difficult seasons. Even when we feel abandoned or disconnected, he will not leave us.

If you’re struggling to connect with your child, bring your questions to God. Ask him for wisdom to see their wounds and understand their heart. Trust that he will guide you with light and never abandon you. Cling to his promises and keep praying—God is always at work.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Motherhood can feel overwhelming when we’re striving to do it all, but Jesus meets us with compassion, not frustration. Psalm 103:11-14 reminds us that God knows every weakness and limitation we face, yet he lovingly offers His strength and grace to carry us through. 

When we surrender to him, he helps us grow, equips us to know our children better, and brings glory even from our struggles.

Instead of striving, we can rest in the compassion of a God who sees, knows, and holds us through it all.

Welcome back to the kitchen table. Have you ever paused to think about how deeply God knows you? He doesn’t just see you, he studies you with love, care, and patience. God knows every detail of your heart—your questions, doubts, struggles, and joys. And here’s the beautiful truth: he is for you.

Luke 15:3-7 reminds us of the parable of the lost sheep. When we wander, he isn’t scolding us or shaking his head in frustration. He is the Good Shepherd who searches for his lost sheep, rejoicing when he brings us back into his arms.

When we bring our questions to him, he doesn’t turn us away. Instead, he welcomes them. He is not annoyed by our curiosity or struggles but delights in drawing us closer to him.

No matter where you are, he is with you, studying you with love and longing for you to know how much you are cared for.
