Vol. 140


WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 1994

No. 112


House of Representatives

  The House met at 10 a.m.
  The Reverend Harry F. Andrews, Unity United Methodist Church, 
Kannapolis, NC, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty and everlasting God, we once again summon You to this great 
Hall of debate and legislative creativity. Challenge us to tolerate 
each other's idiosyncrasies, remind us to love our neighbor as 
ourselves, and when all else fails, encourage us to agree to disagree. 
As we consider in what direction our constituents would want us to go 
on the issues of crime, health care, and world peace, open our hearts 
and minds to the opinions of others. We suspect that You are annoyed 
with some of the stuff we have approved since our Nation was born, but 
we ask this morning that You continue to annoy us with Your 
omnipotence, until we get it right. Strengthen us, humble us, bless us, 
affirm us, love us. Amen.
