Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all the bloggers out there!
Well, I don't know about you guys, but since I'm from and in Germany we celebrate Christmas Eve (that's when we open the gifts). My family had a real cosy night and since we are so many that's always a guarantee for lots of laughter and fun.
As I mentioned in an earlier blog I was in Norway form December 13 - 17. It was in order to be sent out from "my" base. It was so good to see everyone again. And if I hadn't witnessed it myself I would have never believed what a change in atmosphere it was to last year (for the better). The moment I stepped into the base I could actually feel the change, it felt so much lighter and easier to be around people...
I'm grateful for being able to part with a memory like this for a goodbye, it makes parting a lot easier and leaves me ready to look ahead and to get ready to leave for Thailand - which is in a little more than 3 weeks from now!

Well, I wish you all a Happy Holiday wherever you might be.
God bless-
Hanna

I see you beautiful!!!!!!!

This poem gave the idea for the message I shared in cellgroup last week. It means so much to me that I wanna share it with a broader audience. Its a truth God is saying over everone of us!

I see you beautiful
Don’t you know my tears fall down from heaven
when you don’t see what I see?
when you look in the mirror and cry
“How can this reflection be me?”

I created you with pure Beauty
Radiant as my son
I was overjoyed when I moulded you with my hands
And beamed when the job was done

The enemy has blinded you my beautiful child
from seeing the amazing person I created
He has made you see something that is a lie
And what I made you, you hated.

So open your eyes my precious child
to the truth of how you are
Beautiful, strong and wonderfully made.
That is who you are
I see you beautiful

Hi there, well, its been a busy morning so far.
First I had to go to the dentist where I got two fillings,
then I went to the "Labor Office" (I have no clue how this is properly called in English). Anyway I had to check some stuff about my unemployment benefit there.
After dealing with this I went back downtown to buy a christmas gift for one of my sisters. :o)
And as a last thing I got a fitting for some special tights made (the kind you need, when you have "weak" veins- which I have). So I was kinda glad when I was finally back home...

Hi there,
well, I got a bit tired of having to update my homepage all the time. Thats why I got myself this blog, which makes it a lot easier to keep you guys up-to-date.
Love, Hanna
