                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, our conquering King, thank You for providing us with 
wings of faith to soar above life's challenges and vicissitudes. 
Empower our lawmakers to use faith's wings to live lives that are lofty 
and laudable. May they stand for right and be willing to accept the 
consequences as they strive to please You in all that they think, say, 
and do. Lord, give them the wisdom to follow Your unfailing guidance, 
seeking to be patient even with difficult people. Open their minds to 
discern Your will as You give them the courage to obey You.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
