                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, our shelter in the time of storm, when our hearts 
grow faint and weary, renew our strength and enable us to soar above 
our challenges.
  Today, fill our lawmakers with the spirit of wisdom. May their 
different approaches to problem-solving for our Nation and world 
contribute to more effective solutions for freedom in the years to 
come. Lord, deliver our Senators from the spirit of pessimism, and 
bless them as they seek to honor You. In their thoughts, words, and 
deeds, may they passionately strive to glorify You, ever seeking Your 
divine approval.
  We pray in Your Holy Name. Amen.
