                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal and blessed God, in a dangerous and unstable world, we find 
solace from Your presence. We praise You that even when wrong seems so 
strong, Your providence continues to prevail.
  Today, as our lawmakers grapple with pressing issues, give them the 
wisdom to seek Your guidance. Respond to their petitions by 
undergirding our Senators with Your enabling might, empowering them to 
exercise responsible stewardship of their influence by striving to be 
lights in a dark world.
  Lord, open their ears and hearts this day to hear and obey Your 
voice.
  We pray in Your powerful Name. Amen.
