Because we live in a culture that gives us access to an infinite amount of information, we can sometimes make the mistake of thinking that we are wise, but there is a vast difference between knowledge and wisdom.
I’ve been praying and pondering this episode for several weeks now as I wanted to start the New Year focused on what I believe is one of the most important goals that we as wives and moms can devote ourselves to and that is becoming wise women of God.

As women, our emotions can easily become the driving force in our lives. Although having emotions is one of the ways that we reflect the image of God, in our humanity, emotions make a horrible GPS and can lead us away from true rest.
Today we are going to be talking about finding rest in the Lord emotionally. What does it mean? What does it look like?
