                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Scott Eynon, Community Christian Church, Tamarac, Florida, 
offered the following prayer:
  Heavenly Father, it is our prayer that You will grant us wisdom today 
and that You will bless the Members of Congress as they lead our Nation 
during these challenging times.
  Father, we are amazed by Your grace, awed by Your resplendent 
creation, captivated by Your love, and dependent upon Your guidance for 
every day. We do not take these blessings for granted. We thank You for 
them.
  We also thank You for the problems that come our way, for they make 
us even more dependent upon You for Your guidance and for Your 
strength.
  Father, Your Word tells us that righteousness exalts a nation. So 
help us to be great by striving to be good. May our Representatives 
exemplify principle-centered leadership.
  Father, we ask that You would bless the men and women who serve in 
our military. We ask that You would bless those who serve here in 
Congress. We ask that You bless this great land that we call home. In 
Jesus' name I pray.
  Amen.
