What a weekend....

We have had a fantastic weekend away - just us girls.



My sister-in-law Hanne (Kristian´s sister) my sister-in-law Lis (Kristian brother´s wife) and my niece Christine went to Hamburg for the weekend. Our ulitmate goal was to hear Joyce Meyer speak on Sunday, but while waiting for Sunday to come we had fun exploring the city. We went shopping (this was mostly done by Christine!) we chatted, laughed and ate far too much food. 

Hamburg is a really lovely city with loads of things to see. I would like to come back some time and explore a bit more. (bring Kristian along the next time!)


Now we are all curled up in our beds in our 1 star hotel right in the centre of  Hamburg. Yes we booked a 1star hotel not knowing what standard to expect, but I must say it has been great. It is clean, the breakfast this morning was delicious, there was loads of food. The only thing that is a bit different is that we have a shower right smack bang in the middle of the room! Good job we know each other pretty well!! and I`m thankful that it was only the shower that was in the middle of the room and not the toilet! Anyway it´s a good hotel for the price that we paid.



Today we finally got to hear Joyce Meyers live. It was a brilliant day and she was fantastic. She spoke from Ephesians 1, 17 about Pauls prayer for us....that we should know God, not just know about Him but know Him intimately. The second thing Paul prayed for was that we would know who we are in Christ and then finally to know the power of God in our lives. 


The absolute best thing was that the angels were singing in heaven tonight. A couple of hundred people came to know the Lord as their Saviour. That was so touching to see!! 

Tomorrow morning we head home again but not before doing a spot of shopping at the boarder shop. It will be great to see Kristian and the kids again. It´s been a really wonderful trip. Thanks girls!!
