                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, our purpose is to glorify You by serving our Nation. We 
want to express an energetic earnestness about our work today. Help us 
to know what You want and then want what we know; to say what we mean, 
and mean what we say. Give us resoluteness and intentionality. Free us 
to listen to You so intently that we can speak with courage. Keep us in 
the battle for truth rather than ego-skirmishes over secondary issues. 
Make us party to Your plans so we can give leadership to our parties 
and then help our parties work together to accomplish Your purposes. 
Make us one in the expression of our patriotism. In the Name of our 
Lord and Savior. Amen.
