                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, the same yesterday, today, and forever, keep our 
lawmakers strong, patient, and true. Give them the wisdom to be just, 
reasonable, and courageous as they do Your will on Earth. Lord, teach 
them how to conduct themselves in contentious situations, as they seek 
to glorify Your name. Bless them in all they do.
  May they remember Your promise to always be with them, inspiring them 
to live in harmony, peace, and love. Lord, give them the creativity 
needed to build a better nation and world.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
