OCS Begins...

It is Saturday night, 31 May 2008, and I am less than 24 hours away from starting the journey of officer candidate school. I checked in on Friday and it was a bit of a difficult experience as I had to take of my stripes as a noncomissioned officer and put on the rank of officer candidate. The course will be difficult because of the fact that so much of what we will be doing will be dictated by the members of our class. It will be both physically and mentally challenging, but I am looking forward to it.

Please pray for me on Tuesday as I will be taking the Army Physical Fitness Test; that is our first major challenge and it will play a large role in our order of merit list which is what will be used to choose our branch.

God is good and I am trying my best to witness to everyone I come in contact with. Please pray for the people that are not saved in my class that the Holy Spirit would soften their hearts to the Gospel and that He would provide opportunities for me to show them who Jesus really is...our Lord and Savior!

I love you all and thank you for your support and prayers.

A Soldier For Christ,
Will
