                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Lord, our God, You have called us to represent You. May our lives 
bring honor and glory to your holy Name. Strengthen our lawmakers with 
Your spirit's power. Empower and guide them to serve You by serving the 
lost, the lonely and the least. Be in their minds and understanding. Be 
also in their mouths and their speaking.
  Fill them with Your truth and give them sufficient abilities to deal 
with the changing issues they face. Lord, show them the doors of 
opportunity through which You would have them pass. And, Lord, we ask 
that You would be with the cyclone victims of Myanmar. We pray in Your 
wonderful Name. Amen.
