                        House of Representatives

  The House met at 10 a.m.
  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Because You are the Lord God, all relate to You, each in his or her 
own way. Because You are the Creator of the heavens and all on Earth, 
from the beginning, even until now everything and everyone is 
interrelated and held by You. Teach us, Lord, how to relate to one 
another.
  Guide all in this Nation, especially the Members of this Chamber, how 
to relate to the problems and the human concerns that confront the 
family of nations. Your word tells us, Lord: ``In Your relations with 
one another, clothe yourself with humility because I, Your Lord God, am 
stern with the arrogant but to the humble I show kindness.''
  Let us bow humbly under Your hand, O Lord, that in due time You may 
lift our heads high with joy. Humbly let us cast all our cares on You 
because You care for us now and forever. Amen.
