We are always learning…whether we apply that learning to our lives will determine how we will live. Coming back from Estonia left me with many life lessons. Now comes the task of applying those lessons to my everyday life here. Sometimes it is a matter of evaluating what lessons apply to life here and what are more cultural. One lesson is that the teens in Estonia love to stay up late during the summer…since there is only night about 2 hours a day…the sun rises around 2:30am…they love to stay up late….there is ministry done during these hours…lesson…I can spend some good quality time with a teen late into the morning….can that translate here…of course…if I want to spend a lot of time in the hospital recovering from exhaustion….some lessons just don’t translate or need to be adapted. So for me and the rest of our team now that we are back is to take these life lessons and make applications that translate into our everyday lives here….if we don’t then we will just be wasting valuable lessons lived…but never applied….peace out….dave…oh…be watching…we will be announcing soon an event for all to attend to learn more about our trip and to see slides and hear from each member of the team….later….dave
