                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, ADM Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Lord of the universe, Your power makes the oceans rise, and we rely 
on Your strength to live abundantly. Thank You, Lord, for the many 
opportunities You send us each day to do good. Do in and through us 
what we can never accomplish in our own strength. Use us to remove 
walls of suspicion, division, and hate, and to build bridges of trust, 
unity, and understanding throughout our world.
  May we remember not to fear disappointments and setbacks because You 
promised that nothing can separate us from Your love. We pray this in 
Your strong name. Amen.
