                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  We admit, O gracious God, that often we know the route we should 
follow but we lack the will to take the step, we understand where we 
should be and what we should do, but we lack the resolution to follow 
through on our beliefs. On this day we pray, O God, that, armed with 
Your good spirit, we will have the courage to act as well as to think, 
to do as well as to talk, and finally, to accomplish the works of faith 
and hope and love in all we do. Bless us this day and every day, we 
pray. Amen.
