Timeless Shoe Fashions
adsbelowhead
We all know shoes can make or break an outfit, but the wrong
shoe can also
impede progress on your Christian journey. So what’s required to ‘walk
worthy’? Here are a few shoe fashions every Christian single woman
should possess:
-
Must Haves (shoes for every
season)
- Everyday Shoes
- Patent Leather Pumps
- A Classy pair of shoes
- White Shoes (not your basic black shoe)
Must Have Shoes
Wouldn’t you know it, as soon as you finally get the latest shoe
another shoe trend or must have shoe for the season is announced. If
it’s not a new hot style, it’s a new color. Often times, when the new
shoe finally becomes affordable (or at least goes on sale) we’re at the
end of the season and guess what, we’re behind the latest fashion trend
once again.
At some point, even the greatest fashionistas among us must grow tired
of playing this game every few months. If only there was a fabulous
shoe suitable for any season, any outfit or any occasion. There really
is a shoe that is not only a Must Have for any season, but a Must Have
for life –
JESUS
CHRIST.
Everyday Shoes
Remember old classic television shows like Little House on the Prairie
and The Walton’s? These shows are probably not the first thing that
comes to mind when you think of shoe fashions, but they had one thing
in common as it relates to shoes – the characters only had two pair.
They had their everyday (or school) shoes and their church shoes. Many
of us are so fortunate that the concept of only two pairs of shoes is
foreign to us. However, even with the plethora of shoes we now possess,
there is still one pair of shoes we should wear daily -
PRAYER.
Patent Leather Pumps
Shiny, glossy and sleek…the distinguished look of a patent leather
shoe! Could it be the way it catches the light or its waterproof
durability that makes the shiny shoe such an appealing classic?
Whatever the reason, I think most would agree the patent leather pump
has long been the traditional selection for accessorizing a woman’s
Sunday best.
I can recall getting ready for church on Sunday morning. Grandma, half
dressed, put breakfast on the table then disappeared to the back room.
Minutes later she would appear from the back fully clothed with a
fabulous hat, purse to match and those shiny patent leather shoes! She
then, announced…”ok, y’all it’s time to go to
CHURCH!”
“And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but
encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is
drawing near” - Hebrews 10:25 NLT
Classy Shoes
Yes, we all have them; a pair of shoes that just makes you feel good
whenever you wear them. They look great and they’re comfortable.
Notwithstanding what anyone else thinks, you love them and they
represent your core style. Much like these shoes, the Christian woman
should possess a quality that defines who you are at the core, it’s
called
CHARACTER.
Character is defined as the total qualities making up a person’s
individuality and moral qualities (or as my grandmother would say, it’s
who you are when no one is looking). Being a woman of character and
grace is paramount for the Christian single woman. We are called to be
set apart, to be salt and light. There should be something different
about us not because we are female, but because Christ’s Spirit dwells
within us.
White Shoes
Last, but not least, fashion experts consider a basic black pump a
staple for every woman’s closet, but for the Christian single woman, a
white shoe should be the color of choice. Though unpopular, the
Christian single woman has been called to a life of
PURITY.
Granted society has glamorized sex so much that living a life of purity
seems asinine, but just as having good morals never goes out of style,
living a life of purity is always fashionable for the Christian single
woman. While sexual purity is critical, real purity is being fully
committed to Christ in every area of your life. It can be difficult in
today’s society, but with the right focus and dedication, it is indeed
possible.
So there you have it ladies, five shoe fashions required for your
Christian journey. Best of all, there is no purchase is required
because Jesus already paid the price. All you have to do is accept the
gift and live the life…a life pleasing to Christ.
“That you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being
fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God” -
Colossians 1:10 NKJV
