Hello /christian/. This is a relatively off topic/blog post. But I've spent the past year going to college, as a participant in the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps program. Basically this program is designed to supplement your normal college experience with military training, and at the end when you graduate with your degree, you become an officer in the Air Force.
Well, to put things simply, at the end of your sophmore year you compete to continue on with the program. Today my group of people found out who is continuing and who is not. I was one of the people who was chosen not to continue.
I'm not the best cadet, but I'm far from the worst. I encouraged everyone and tried to help people see that they can go beyond their limits and I know it sounds cheesy, but i tried to help them be the best that they can. Essentially, I was voted out of the program because I tend to have a serious demeanor and I come off as very dry, emotionless, stark, and intense. I do not mean to be this way, this is simply a character flaw that I've had for as long as I can remember.
I post to /christian/ today because this is the only board on this site that I go on anymore. I wanted to ask you if this is God's way of telling me to stay out of the military. I thought that if I became an officer I can change things for the better and serve God, but it seems like God may want me to serve in a different way.
