                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, You are our shelter from the storm. Keep us from shame.
  Lord, You often answer prayers in mysterious ways. As the Heavens are 
higher than the Earth, so are Your thoughts higher than our 
contemplation.
  Inspire our Senators to be so sensitive to Your Spirit that they can 
recognize Your gentle nudge. Make them glad that You are near.
  Lord, equip our lawmakers with wisdom and foresight for these 
challenging times. May Your peace go with them as they seek to do Your 
will.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
