                                 prayer

  The guest Chaplain offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  We give You thanks and praise this day, Lord God of justice and 
peace. You are the source of all that is good in our world.
  Psalm 37 reminds us that ``if you trust in the Lord and do good, then 
you will live in the land and be secure. If you find your delight in 
the Lord, He will grant your heart's desire. Commit your life to the 
Lord, trust in Him and He will act, so that your justice breaks forth 
like the light, your cause like the noon-day sun.''
  Almighty Father, bless Your sons and daughters who seek to do Your 
will this day. May we find our delight in You so that You may grant our 
hearts' desires. Help us to commit our lives to You and let Your 
justice shine bright in our world.
  We ask this in Your Holy Name. Amen.
