                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Sovereign Lord, our God and King, You have promised that those who 
trust You will not miss out on anything good.
  Give to our Senators the wonder of Your grace. Impart to them the 
wisdom to use their talents for Your purpose and glory. Today, surround 
them with the shield of Your favor and use them as instruments of Your 
will. May their thoughts and actions please You, for You are the one 
Who fills our lives with gladness.
  Remind us all that when our lives please You, You enable us to live 
in peace even with our enemies.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
