                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, Ultimate Sovereign of this Nation and of our lives, we 
commit this week to seeking and doing Your will. We all desire to do 
what is best for our Nation. Help us to wait on You and listen 
patiently for Your voice whispering in our souls solutions for the 
complexities we face. Guide us to express our convictions with courage 
but also with openness to others. We have in common our trust in You 
and our dedication to serve our Nation. We relinquish our desire simply 
to win in a contest of wills or party loyalties. If we all seek You and 
Your righteousness, we know You will show us the answer. For Your 
name's sake and the good of America. Amen.
