                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, Your ways are right. Make Your face to shine upon us 
and keep us under the shelter of Your wings. Thank You for the life 
that stirs within us and for our bright and beautiful world. Lord, the 
works of Your hands bring us joy, creating in us a desire to bless Your 
Name.
  Today fill the hearts of our Senators with praise and peace as they 
seek to accomplish Your purposes. Give them wings of faith to rise 
above the challenges that keep them tethered to sectarian paralysis. 
Provide them with everything they need to live a life that glorifies 
You.
  Lord, we thank You for our gifted Senate pages who faithfully serve 
You and country.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
