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

Posted by Paulette Harper On Sept - 14 - 2009

Do you have a closet that no one is allowed to open? I wonder why not. Is it full of junk and you keep telling yourself you are going to use one day? Just like cleaning out the closet, at times we need to do a spiritual and emotional cleaning.

Don't Stop The Love

Posted by Tanya White On Sept - 14 - 2009

Have you noticed that now that Valentine’s Day is history you have made being in and demonstrating love a mystery? Your unexpected kisses have been kicked to the curve. The peace has passed away. Your loving words of encouragement and compassion have quickly crept away like a thief in the night.

God Has The Final Say

Posted by Tonya Blount June - 1 - 2009

After years of emotional, physical, and verbal abuse, I finally ended my marriage. My exodus wasn’t planned. After a vicious beating that led to my arrest (at my former husband insistence), I prayed to God and heard an audible voice that asked, “Are you ready to Leave the Wilderness?” Several days later, I packed up my children and left. I had no plan and nowhere to go. We were immediately homeless...

Every stiletto has her secrets to her own personal style. These coveted secrets cannot be gleaned from the glossy magazines at the checkout stands in the grocery store or the latest best-selling guide to style.

Managing The Stress In Our Temples

Posted by Patricia Bridewell On Sept - 14 - 2009

Have you ever had those days when you just wanted to throw your hands in the air and give up? I know the feeling because I have rough days, too. The burden of stress falls on all of us and although it can be challenging, it is something we must all face. I would like to share some faith-based information and stress management techniques that I hope will help you cope with the stress in your lives.

Have you noticed that now that Valentine’s Day is history you have made being in and demonstrating love a mystery? Your unexpected kisses have been kicked to the curve. The peace has passed away. Your loving words of encouragement and compassion have quickly crept away like a thief in the night.

But just because Valentine’s Day is over and you received (or did not receive) the gifts that you desired, should the love stop? No way! As Keith Sweat sings (or begs)…Don’t Stop Your Love!

Real love is more than an action. It is an attitude. It is universal. Love is unending. And most importantly, love is unconditional.

We tend to race to find love on a two way street of honesty, humility, communication and commitment. But then we quickly lose it on the highway of selfishness, loneliness, boredom or trying to live out other peoples’ expectations for our relationship.

However, you can find those loving feelings again when you:

• Think about what your life would be like without the one you love-Tomorrow is not promised, so cherish people and love them every single day.

• Refuse to allow life’s frustrations interrupt your communication-Life will always bring seasons of both joy and pain. Communicate your honest feelings with your loved one in both seasons no matter how painful.

• Implement the 3-“F” factors in your relationship-The 3-“ F” factors include faith, focus and fun. Have faith and believe the best about your loved one. Focus on maintaining healthy emotional and spiritual support towards your mate. Lastly, have fun with the one you love. A good laugh goes a long way.
If you have stumbled in your love walk towards your spouse, significant other or even family and friends, you can start to truly love again. When you truly have real love for someone, then every day should be special. Just because Valentine’s Day has passed, don’t stop your love but try to make it last forever.
