                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Father of love, as we live this day, give us wisdom, strength, and 
commitment to serve You in all we do. We acknowledge You, Lord, as the 
Creator and Sustainer of our destinies. So show us how to do Your will.
  Lord, guide our Senators. Lead them by Your wisdom as they seek to 
know and obey Your precepts. Illuminate their path with the light of 
Your truth, and keep them from sin, which is a reproach to any people. 
Help them to overcome the temptation of trying to make it on their own 
strength. Instead, guide them until they yield to the inflow of Your 
wisdom, insight, and vision.
  We pray in Your powerful Name. Amen.
