                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Gracious Father, You have called us to be creative thinkers. We begin 
this day by yielding our thinking brains to Your magnificent 
creativity. You know everything; You also know what is best for us and 
the Nation You have entrusted to the care of this Senate. We are 
grateful that You not only are omniscient but also omnipresent. You are 
here in this Chamber and will be with the Senators and their staffs 
wherever this day's responsibilities take them. We take seriously the 
admonition of Proverbs 16:3: ``Commit your works to the Lord, and your 
thoughts will be established.''
  Thank You for this secret of success in Your Word. In response we 
look to what is ahead this day and thank you in advance for 
supernatural intelligence to maximize our thinking. You are our Lord 
and Saviour. Amen.
