                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, who seeks and finds us, let Your light shine on us 
today. May its bright beams provide us with answers to our questions, 
assurances for our doubts, strength for our weakness, and vision for 
our duty.
  Illuminate the path of our Senators with the clarity of Your wisdom, 
so that whatever they say or do will bring honor to You.
  Make our lives shining lights of Your goodness that people will see 
our faithful labors and glorify Your name. Help us to live to bless 
others.
  We pray in the Spirit of Him who is the light of the world. Amen.
