                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  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 be 
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 Senators 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.
