                                 prayer

  The guest Chaplain offered the following prayer:
  Heavenly Father, we recognize that every good and perfect gift comes 
from You. It is in You that we live and move and have our being. It is 
Your Spirit who empowers us when we are weak and enlightens us when we 
are confused.
  I pray that You would give the men and women who serve in this Senate 
a spirit of wisdom and revelation. Help them discern between what is 
good and what is best. Help them to discern between what is temporal 
and what is eternal.
  Give them the wisdom to discern Your good, pleasing, and perfect will 
and the courage to do it. In Jesus' name. Amen.
