                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, who has created humanity in Your image, look upon us and 
hear our prayers. Today, give our lawmakers the desire to do Your will 
and the energy to complete the tasks that will glorify Your Name. That 
which they don't know, reveal it. That which they lack, supply it. And 
that which they doubt, verify it. Keep them blameless in Your service, 
so that their lives will be living letters that will cause people to 
exalt Your Name. Strengthen their minds for Your service, so that Your 
wisdom will permeate their every endeavor. Remind them to not forget 
the lost, the lonely, the least, the last, and the left out.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
