                                 PRAYER

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Today's prayer will be offered by Pastor Ken 
Carney, First Church of the Nazarene, Hot Springs, AR.
  The guest Chaplain offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Heavenly Father, we come before You today asking You for a new touch 
of grace to fall on all of our elected leaders. You told us in Your 
Word to ask for wisdom. I humbly ask today for everyone who governs and 
makes decisions concerning our great country to be filled with Your 
divine wisdom. Please, Father, remember mercy for those who are weak 
and struggling.
  I close my prayer by asking that You protect all of our elected 
leaders and their families from harm and danger.
  This I pray in Your Holy and Matchless Name. Amen.
