WOMEN AND STRENGTH EVENT BY YHANIQUA LOPES


On June 1st, a group of talented and strong woman got together for the first official Yhaniqua Lopes meeting. On the meeting, Ariane Fonseca did not only launch the Summer Collection: Classy Stuff, as well as she gave the chance for others business women to show their work, and share life experience. That is exactly the spirit behind the brand, Yhaniqua Lopes, to explore and stand out the womanhood, and to motivate people (especially women) to do better in life. The meeting was very entertaining, fun, and informative. I can personally say that it was a great pleasure to meet such distinct ladies who work hard and know no excuses to achieve their goals. The meeting was very entertaining, fun, and informative. The pictures will tell better you better :)

Thank you all for attending!

TIME FOR GOD

Psalm 27

Of David.

The Lord is my light and my salvation—
    whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—
    of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked advance against me
    to devour[a] me,
it is my enemies and my foes
    who will stumble and fall.
Though an army besiege me,
    my heart will not fear;
though war break out against me,
    even then I will be confident.
One thing I ask from the Lord,
    this only do I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,
to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
    and to seek him in his temple.
For in the day of trouble
    he will keep me safe in his dwelling;
he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent
    and set me high upon a rock.
Then my head will be exalted
    above the enemies who surround me;
at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy;
    I will sing and make music to the Lord.
Hear my voice when I call, Lord;
    be merciful to me and answer me.
My heart says of you, “Seek his face!”
    Your face, Lord, I will seek.
Do not hide your face from me,
    do not turn your servant away in anger;
    you have been my helper.
Do not reject me or forsake me,
    God my Savior.
10 Though my father and mother forsake me,
    the Lord will receive me.
11 Teach me your way, Lord;
    lead me in a straight path
    because of my oppressors.
12 Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes,
    for false witnesses rise up against me,
    spouting malicious accusations.
13 I remain confident of this:
    I will see the goodness of the Lord
    in the land of the living.
14 Wait for the Lord;
    be strong and take heart
    and wait for the Lord.
