                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Gracious Father, our courage is based on the assurance of Your ever-
present, guiding Spirit. Therefore, we will not fear. Our hope is 
rooted in trust in Your reliability. Therefore, we will not be anxious. 
Your interventions in trying times in the past have made us experienced 
optimists for the future. Therefore, we will not spend our energy in 
useless worry. Thank you for another week of progress. You have 
answered our prayers on time and in time.
  Bless the Senators, Lord. Renew them physically, emotionally, and 
spiritually. Give them profound satisfaction in being used by You to 
provide Your best for America. May they and all of us who are 
privileged to work with them claim Your promise, ``Those who wait on 
the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings 
like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not 
faint.''--Isaiah 40:31. Through our Lord and Savior. Amen.
