                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, You have challenged us to become like children in order 
to enter Your kingdom. Today give us a child's trust, that we may find 
joy in Your guidance. Give us a child's wonder, that we may never take 
for granted the Earth's beauty and the sky's glory. Give us a child's 
love, that we may find our greatest joy in being close to You. Give us 
a child's humility, that we will trust Your wisdom to order our steps.
  Guide our Senators and those who support them through the challenges 
of this day. As they look to You for wisdom, supply their needs 
according to Your infinite riches.
  We pray in Your righteous Name. Amen.
