                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, Sovereign of our Nation and Lord of our lives, we don't 
know all that the future holds, but we do know You hold the future.
  We press on with courage and confidence. Here are our minds: Think 
Your thoughts through them. Here are our imaginations; show us Your 
purpose and plan. Here are our wills; guide us to do Your will. What 
You give us the vision to conceive and the daring to believe, You will 
give us the power to achieve. So go before us to show us Your way, 
behind us to press us forward toward Your goals, beside us to give us 
Your resiliency, above us to watch over us; and within us to give us 
Your supernatural gifts of great leadership--wisdom, discernment, 
knowledge, and vision. In Your all powerful name. Amen.
