                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Sovereign King, our hope for years to come, deliver us from the sin 
of running from the truth. Remind us often that truth brings freedom.
  Thank You that You are our helper, sustaining our lives and keeping 
us strong. You guide us through the wilderness and protect us through 
life's storms.
  Lord, inspire our lawmakers to place themselves into Your hands, 
permitting You to fulfill Your purposes through their faithful toil. 
Fill them with reverential awe and give them a sanctified audacity, 
even when facing trials and setbacks.
  We pray in Your loving Name. Amen.
