                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Dr. Barry Black, Chaplain of the United States Senate, 
Washington, D.C., offered the following prayer:
  Sovereign Lord, Your kingdom cannot be shaken.
  Thank You for inviting us to ask and receive, to seek and find, and 
to knock for doors to open. Lord, forgive us when we forfeit our 
blessings because of our failure to ask. Remind us that we have not 
because we ask not.
  Inspire our lawmakers to harness prayer power continuously. May they 
follow Your admonition to pray without ceasing. Throughout this day, 
may they repeatedly ask You for wisdom and guidance. May their fervent 
prayers make a positive impact on the legislative process.
  We pray in Your great name.
  Amen.
