                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Gracious God, as the morning comes new every day, so are Your 
blessings new to us. Thank You for the blessing of Your presence that 
brightens this day, restores our faith, and fills us with peace. Thank 
You for the blessing of friends who support, encourage, and sustain us. 
Lord, thank You for the blessing of families who nurture and forgive 
and undergird us with love.
  Thank You for the Members of this body, for their love of liberty, 
for their desire to make a positive impact on our world, and for their 
commitment to You. Guide them today so that Your will may be done on 
Earth even as it is done in heaven.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
