                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Gracious God, thank You for this moment of prayer in which we can 
affirm Your call to seek unity in the midst of differences in the 
parties and politics. So often we focus on what separates us rather 
than the bond of unity that binds us together. We are one in our 
calling to serve You and our Nation and in the belief that You are the 
ultimate and only sovereign. You are the magnetic and majestic Lord of 
all who draws us out of pride and self-serving attitudes to work 
together for You. We find each other as we join our hearts in gratitude 
for the privilege of leading our Nation. Keep us so close to You and so 
open to one another that this will be a week of great progress. Help us 
to work expeditiously and with excellence for Your glory and our 
Nation's good. Through our Lord and Saviour. Amen.
