                                 PRAYER

  Bishop Miles Fowler, Big Miller Grove Missionary Baptist Church, 
Lithonia, Georgia, offered the following prayer:
  God of all creation, we humbly approach Thy throne asking that You 
bless this august body of men and women as they endeavor to create 
legislation that will impact the lives of Your people.
  Lord, help these leaders to lean not to their own understanding but 
to acknowledge You and seek Your guidance, that You may direct their 
paths.
  We pray, Lord, that You give them the wisdom of Solomon, the strength 
of Sampson, the courage of Esther, and let these be tempered with Your 
grace.
  Finally, Lord, bless President Obama, his family, and all of the 
leaders of this great Nation, in the matchless name of Your Son, Jesus, 
the Christ. Amen.
