Faith Filled Stilettos: Welcome to the September/October Edition of FFS!

The Lifted Lady

Posted by Keisha Mitchell On Sept - 14 - 2009

It is amazing to me how several of the most coveted positions (in the church and in the secular world) appear, from the outside view, to carry great grandeur and few tribulations. However, this is a great misconception. Many desire to carry the titles of honor, but they truly do not understand the reality of the burden that comes with these positions.

Removing The Clutter

Welcome to the September/October Edition of FFS!

...Finding self-worth is sometimes the hardest thing for women to do. We wait for others to validate us, instead of knowing it's okay to validate ourselves....

This month, in Faith Filled Stilettos, we wanted to do something different and introduce YOU as our featured cover person for this issue. You may be asking, "How does that work?" Simple. We've come up with a few questions we'd like for you to answer honestly and share with other women why self-love is so important. Our society is plagued with so much hurt and pain that it may be hard to receive the love God has for us, but that doesn't mean it isn't there.

It's time for women to fight for the love they deserve and it starts with first loving yourself!
