                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, help us to remember Your mighty acts. You are kind and 
merciful, better to us than we deserve. You feed the sparrows and cause 
the Sun to rise. You forgive our sins and provide us with strength for 
every challenge.
  Lord, use our lawmakers today for Your glory. May they be courteous 
and kind as they seek to do what is best for this land we love. Remind 
them that they represent the hopes and dreams of many people.
  Thank You, Lord, for the wonderful things that You continue to do for 
us all.
  We pray in Your loving Name. Amen.
