                                 PRAYER

  The Reverend Dwight ``Ike'' Reighard of New Hope Baptist Church, 
Fayetteville, GA, offered the following prayer:
  Our Heavenly Father, we pause to give thanks and acknowledge our 
Creator on this day. We are reminded on this day of June 6 of the 
tremendous sacrifice that occurred 51 years ago today on D-day. The 
price for freedom then and now is eternal vigilance. We pray that we 
all will be mindful and ever thankful for the men and women who served 
in our Armed Forces around the world.
  We pray on this day for our President, Vice President, and leaders of 
Congress, that You would endow them with wisdom and insight beyond 
their human ability.
  Grant us, oh Lord, Your patience, mercy and kindness, and gentleness, 
to touch people, see people, and love people the way You do, and in 
Your name we pray. Amen.
