  The Reverend Dr. Ronald F. Christian, Chaplain, Lutheran Social 
Services, Washington, D.C., offered the following prayer:
  O mighty God, the seasons of the year are ordered by Your will and 
there is a time for everything under the sun. Wisdom teaches us that 
there is a time to plant and a time to grow, a time to harvest and a 
time to lay fallow.
  We know also that the seasons of our lives are part of Your divine 
order and their rhythm is like the ebb and the flow of the tide, the 
springtime of youth, the summer of labor, the autumn of maturity, and 
the winter of reflection.
  O God, by Your goodness, we make a living by what we earn. But we 
make a life by what we give. So help us give thanks for Your blessings, 
give hope to the forlorn, give love to the lonely, and give joy to the 
disheartened.
  And on this day of grace, O God, we pray for the circle of our 
families, for the circle of our friends, for the circle of our 
colleagues, and for the circle of our Nation, the United States of 
America.
  Order our days in Your peace, and bless our deeds with Your grace so 
that, in whatever season of life it is our destiny to live, we may find 
satisfaction in our past and be awarded courage for the unknown 
tomorrows. Amen.
