                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, though we cannot see You with our eyes or touch You with 
our hands, we daily experience the reality of Your presence and power.
  Abide with our lawmakers throughout this day, providing them with 
wisdom, courage, and strength for the living of these days. Give them 
grace to understand the world we cannot see or touch, comprehending 
that eternal issues are at stake. As You care for their physical needs, 
provide also for their soul needs. Help us all to remember that You are 
the source of our strength.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
