Week Two of SF Selection

Thank you so much for all the prayers. I am confident that Micah is doing well and getting the strength he needs from the Lord because of all your faithful and fervent prayers. 

Well, only 13 more days to go! I trust Micah is not losing hope or endurance. The kids and I are doing fine-just thinking about Micah, what seems to be, every minute of the day! 

Below are the prayer requests from last week and a few new ones. Also, the schedule for week 2. 

General Prayer Requests for the next 19 days:
1) His boots to stay dry and no blisters. This is an important thing since he will be marching and running every day, all day.

2) Strength physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

3) For Micah's body to recover quickly from one day to the next. There are no nights or weekends off. So pray for his sleep to be great and for his body to recover while he sleeps.

4) For health and no injuries

5) For determination, endurance and perseverance.

6) For Micah to lean on Jesus at this time for all these things!

7) For the vision of the end of this training to be in his sights and not to lose sight of it.

8) To not believe any lies from the enemy in this time of fatigue and weakness.


Week 2:
Land Navigation
Map Reading
Compass Course
Land Navigation Practical Excerices
Land Navigation Exams

So week two involves the wilderness, a compass, a ruck sack, many miles, and Micah alone...Yipes! Hope he's having fun! :)

Pray for:
wisdom with direction
Wisdom with the tools he's given
The weather to be good for all this land navigation
No injuries or animal/insect bites that could be serious
Swiftness with getting where he needs to go
Wisdom, direction, wisdom, and direction!
