                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, as we celebrate George Washington's birthday, give us 
the courage to attempt great things for You and the humility to expect 
great strength from You. Help us to live beyond the meager resources of 
our own adequacies and discover again that You are totally reliable 
when we trust You completely. You lead us to confront old problems with 
new power from You.
  Dear God, today the Senators return to the crucial work of developing 
creative legislation to solve the needs of our Nation. Give them a 
fresh burst of excitement about the challenges ahead this next month. 
Renew the unity achieved in past weeks. May the differing approaches 
expressed by both parties contribute to greater solutions. Change the 
win-lose mind-set of party politics to the win/win mentality of leaders 
who work together for Your greater good and for America. You are our 
Lord and Savior. Amen.
