— So far today, God, I have lived my life as you would intend.
— I haven’t lost my temper.
— So far I have not even grabbed the Chief’s Mess Cook by the throat, like yesterday.
— I have said nothing insulting or humiliating to any of the junior officers.
— I haven’t bitched about the coffee, the ship’s schedule, the watch bill or Saturday’s Personnel Inspection.
— I have told no lies…
— I have not cheated at poker.
— I have put no ship’s tools in my personal toolbox.
— In short God, I believe that so far today I have committed no grievous sins.
— Thank you, God, for helping me to stay righteous so far. But Lord, it’s almost 0600 and in a little, while I’m going to roll out of my bunk and after that, I think I will need a lot more help.

Just stick to the toilet and beer and all will be good.

It does seem sometimes that a lot of people spend a lot of time drinking from “muddy puddles.”

So innocent. Yet so dirty.

I believe He gets “swamped” with a lot of those type of prayers!

THE CHIEF PETTY OFFICER’S PRAYER
Dear Lord…
— So far today, God, I have lived my life as you would intend.
— I haven’t lost my temper.
— So far I have not even grabbed the Chief’s Mess Cook by the throat, like yesterday.
— I have said nothing insulting or humiliating to any of the junior officers.
— I haven’t bitched about the coffee, the ship’s schedule, the watch bill or Saturday’s Personnel Inspection.
— I have told no lies…
— I have not cheated at poker.
— I have put no ship’s tools in my personal toolbox.
— In short God, I believe that so far today I have committed no grievous sins.
— Thank you, God, for helping me to stay righteous so far. But Lord, it’s almost 0600 and in a little, while I’m going to roll out of my bunk and after that, I think I will need a lot more help.
Amen…
