                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Our Father in Heaven, Your grace continues to sustain us in times of 
misfortune or prosperity. We are grateful for Your loving purposes that 
continually crown our years with goodness. Today, enable our lawmakers 
to see with faith's eyes each blessing that comes disguised as 
adversity and each temptation that hides beneath the mask of 
prosperity. Make them grateful for disasters averted and advancements 
made. Lord, let Your love touch our world because of their labors as 
You make them ambassadors of Your purposes. Protect our Senators and 
teach them Your paths. Prosper the work of their hands as You keep them 
from stumbling or slipping.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
