The House assembled at 10:00 A.M.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:
Our Heavenly Father, when we pray for Your guidance and when it comes, let us not think it strange when it is different from what we expected. Instead teach us to understand that our thoughts are not Your thoughts and our way is not always Yours. Make us eager to seek Your will and way in dealing with every situation, rather than devising our own ways and then ask You to bless them. For it is then that we discover how much better is Your way and how secure they are who follow that way. Be real to each one of us as we become increasingly aware of how near You are to those who seek and how infallible are Your truths to guide us.
In our Saviour's Name we pray. Amen.
