                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Zack Randles, Waterfront Church, Washington, D.C., offered 
the following prayer:
  Gracious, Almighty God, we come before You today grateful for the 
privilege to serve and to support those that You have placed under our 
leadership. Give us an eagerness to be good shepherds, just as You are 
our good shepherd.
  May we view our fellow man with eyes of compassion.
  May we give voice to those needing courage and relief to the harassed 
and helpless.
  May we be willing to consider others better than ourselves, with 
wisdom and humility being our identifying attributes.
  May we know when to respond with strength and when to correct with 
gentleness, and may we find comfort in the nudges from Your guiding 
hands leading us toward righteousness.
  I ask all of this in the holy name of Jesus.
  Amen.
