                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  All-powerful Lord, You have the secret of victorious living. In Your 
indwelling, impelling power within us, You make the difference between 
a great and a grim day. We all are alarmed by the number of days spent 
in self-propelled effort, simply because we didn't begin the day by 
opening the door of our hearts to You.
  We come to You in this new day. We have learned that yesterday's 
experience of fellowship with You or guidance from You will not be 
sufficient for today's challenges. You seek entrance into every facet 
of our lives and our work. The latch is always on the inside. Daily, we 
have a choice to open the door or leave it shut in Your face.
  You have work to do here in the Senate, and You plan to do it through 
the Senators. Come in, Lord; You are welcome! Reign supreme in this 
Chamber and in our hearts. In the Name of our Lord and Savior. Amen.
