The Beautiful Chaos of Being a Christian Wife, Mom, Employee, and Business Owner

Life as a Christian wife, mom, employee, and business owner is far from perfect, but in all its complexity, it is deeply rewarding. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that God never called us to be perfect—He calls us to be faithful. So, here I am, navigating the beautiful chaos, doing my best, and letting God handle the rest.

The Daily Juggle
Each day presents a new challenge. As a wife, there’s the need to be present for my husband, offering support and partnership. As a mom, the responsibilities multiply—helping with homework, managing emotions, providing guidance, and just being there for my children. Then there’s my role as an employee, where I must maintain professionalism, meet deadlines, and ensure I’m giving my best to the company I work for. Finally, I wear the hat of a business owner, dreaming big and building something that not only supports my family but also honors God.

Balancing all these roles is exhausting, and I would be lying if I said there aren’t days where I want to throw in the towel. But, that’s where my faith comes in. Through every high and low, I’ve learned to lean on God. I’m constantly reminded that I’m not expected to have it all together.

The Struggles
There are days when nothing seems to go right. I might miss a deadline at work, the kids might be having a rough day, or my business could be facing unexpected challenges. I’ve felt overwhelmed, questioning if I’m doing enough, if I’m present enough, or if I’m succeeding in any of these roles. But in those moments of weakness, I remember that God’s strength is made perfect in my weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). He fills in the gaps where I fall short.

The Highs
Then, there are the moments that make everything worthwhile. The moments when my husband and I share a quiet, prayer-filled night after a long day, or when my kids accomplish something they’ve worked hard for. There’s a joy in seeing the business you’ve built from scratch grow, in knowing that you’re impacting lives with every product or service you offer. God is present in those highs, and He reminds me that I am enough, even in my imperfection.

Letting Go of Perfection
The world pushes us to seek perfection, but as a Christian, I know that true peace comes from surrendering that pursuit to God. I don’t have to be the perfect wife, mom, employee, or business owner. I just need to give my best, love deeply, and trust that God will handle the rest. He’s the only one who is truly perfect, and His grace is more than sufficient.

So, if you’re like me—wearing multiple hats, feeling the weight of your responsibilities, and wondering how you’ll keep it all together—remember this: Perfection is not the goal, faithfulness is. Keep going, lean on God, and trust that in the end, He will make it all beautiful.
