                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, the only source of lasting authentic courage, we thank 
You that You use ordinary people to do extraordinary things. This 
morning, we turn to the psalmist and to Jesus for the bracing truth 
about courage to see things through, not just to the end of the Senate 
session but to the accomplishment of Your ends. David reminds us: ``Be 
of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all you who hope 
in the Lord''--Psalm 31:24. And Jesus challenges us to take courage 
(John 16:33). We know that we can take courage to press on because You 
have taken hold of us. You have called us to serve You because You have 
chosen to get Your work done through us. So bless the Senators as they 
confront the issues of the budget, consider creative compromises, and 
seek to bring this Senate session to a conclusion. In this quiet 
moment, may they take courage and press on. Through our Lord and 
Savior. Amen.
