House of Representatives

  The House met at 10 a.m.
  The Reverend Jeff C. Hudson, Senior Pastor, Fredericktowne Baptist 
Church, Frederick, Maryland, offered the following prayer:
  Our God, we acknowledge that there is none like You. You alone are 
all-powerful. You alone are all-knowing. You alone are present 
everywhere at the same time. You alone are God.
  As we approach the remembrance of the tragedy of 9-11, we are 
reminded of all that You have done for us as a Nation this past year. 
You have caused us to turn to You in a time of crisis. You have brought 
us to our knees and we have cried out to You. You have reminded us of 
our Heritage that we are one Nation under God.
  May that truth guide the Members of the House today as they lead our 
Nation, and may they acknowledge that You are the sovereign Lord of our 
Nation. Grant them wisdom to know what they must do. Grant them courage 
to do what is right. May You be honored in this place today. Amen.
