                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O God, who is slow to anger, You are loving and patient beyond our 
ability to measure or understand.
  Today, bless the Members of this body. Give them direction for their 
work, motivation for their deeds, and forgiveness for their mistakes. 
Help them to develop a sense of dependence on You. Temper their talents 
with wisdom, and give them the ability to see the power of cooperation 
and unity. Discipline their compassion and channel their zeal that they 
may do Your will.
  We pray in Your mighty Name. Amen.
