It all feels so surreal

So BIG and I mean GINORMOUS changes at work!! I never expected to get a promotion so soon. but going from XO to Skipper is what I always wanted.. The hardest part was and still will be trying to come up with a new XO but for now i thihk i will have the COB assist me as best he can. The men respect him and i hope to earn that respect as well. for anyone that thinks they deserve respect is the wrong person for the position. So now it's time for me to NUT UP AND SHUT UP. I asked for it and i got and by the grace of GOD and all that he can do for me I shall endeavor to do both HE  my family and my Supeiors justice in the roll they have placed me in. Lord God may i always find fair winds and following seas in this journey you have allowed me to be put upon may i do you and those who serve you the justice of the title you have so graciously allowed me to partake. May my errors be small but greatly learned from may successes be humbly presented .Lord grant me the knowledge to make wise decisions and the humility to know that they come from you.AMEN!
