                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, the leader's heart is in Your hand and You turn 
destinies as You desire. Give our lawmakers wisdom to labor so that 
justice will abound and the righteousness will flow like a mighty 
stream.
  Lord, may our Senators develop a clear vision of the light that leads 
to truth. Enable them to make the differing approaches expressed by 
both parties contribute to better solutions to the world's problems. 
Infuse our legislators with a reverential awe that will empower them to 
be aware of Your presence and to accept and obey Your plans. Use them 
as extensions of Your power in our Nation and world.
  And, Lord, please place Your healing hands on Senator Harry Reid.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
