                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Lord of Life, You have given us the great hope that Your kingdom 
shall come on Earth. Infuse our lawmakers with such power that Your 
kingdom indeed will come, even as Your will is done on Earth. May the 
fact that You rule in our hearts so transform our lives that we will be 
Your instruments for good in our Nation and the world.
  Lord, we dedicate this day to You to be used in serving Your kingdom. 
Thank You for putting at our disposal all that we need to succeed. 
Assure us of Your presence above us, beneath us, around us, and within 
us, providing us with clear direction to advance Your kingdom on Earth. 
We pray in Your great Name.
  Amen.
