                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Eternal Lord God, who comforts us in all our troubles, be near to our 
lawmakers today. When they feel tired or unappreciated, remind them 
that You keep a record of their labors and will reward them for their 
faithfulness. May the realization that You are close beside them keep 
them from becoming weary in their efforts to keep America strong. As 
they remember that pleasing You should be their first priority, fill 
them with a peace the world can't give or take away. Lord, lead them 
into a future of faith, love, and peace. We pray in Your sacred Name. 
Amen.
