Editor's Note 21 36 I am so EXCITED that we are on our third issue of Real Life Real Faith Women Walking by Faith Magazine and your response has been awesome. We endeavor to bring you more stories of faith, lifestyle support and so much more. It is my prayer that you have been blessed thus far by what we have shared with you through the pages of this God ordained vision. Just know that the best is still yet to come. Please feel free to share with us what you would like to see, what topics are of importance to you, so that we can provide you will what you need. 48 As always this could not have been accomplished without my fantastic team of contributors which include Mary S. Newman, Terri Jackson Carson, Crystal L. Cochren, Jessica Grace White, Rhonda A. Bolden, Yolanda Matthews-Porter, Deborah Hunter, Toni Coleman Brown, Esther Renee Wright, Latasha Kinnard and Dr. Leticia Wright, they are a true blessing and they have willingly shared their passions with you and for that I am truly grateful. In honor of Mother's Day, this issue is dedicated to our mothers, your mothers and mothers of all kinds. Mothers are the most precious people on the planet for they nurture, support, encourage, empower and teach us all how to live better, be better and do better. Mothers have sacrificed their dreams for their children so that they would grow up to be productive, profitable and purposed human beings. We honor all of the WOMEN who have stepped up in the role of mother whether you are a biological one or not. If you have taken children under your wings and loved, taking care of and supported them, we salute you for your act of selflessness. We chose to feature Pastor Najiyyah Brooks of Najiyyah Brooks Ministries, She is a pastor, business owner, advocate for women and a woman who walks by faith. I know that you will be blessed by her words as you continue this journey called life. WOMEN WALKING BY FAITH MAGAZINE | 4 www.realliferealfaithmagazine.com
