Specialized Phase Countdown: Week 5

Perhaps this is the slackest week among all the weeks throughout the course. A 3 and a half day week is all that a trainee could ask for. A time to rest, relax and enjoy during this festive season.

Although it’s only 3.5 days, lectures have been intensive all the way because of the preparation for the following week’s training. Anyway who says army is just training muscles and stamina? Its all in the ‘mind’ I would say. That bring back my days in poly where jotting down notes while lecturers giving lectures seems quite boring yet fun. However, for that particular following week, both muscles and minds are going to be strained.

Prayer request: Please pray that I can do well in terms of physical and mental in all the challenges next week through spiritual means. That is, “I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)

PS:
Thank God for giving us such a great fatherly-like figure as our officer commanding (OC). How generous for our OC to give all the trainees, instructors and stuffs red packets. Thank God not because of the money but of the attitude and sincerity he wrapped inside every single red packets – his sincerity as our OC and the care he has given us so far.
I want to be like him in terms of generosity and sincerity – giving not money but what’s more important than that which bares eternal values!
