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:
O God, out of the uncertainties of this world we come into Your presence to pray. We are thankful for all that You constantly and without ceasing do for us. From these moments of prayer, send us forth to be better citizens of our beloved State. Give us patience, O Lord, lest we demand too much of others, lest we demand too much too soon, lest we become irritable when things do not go our way. Give us determination when the road becomes rocky, assuring us that Your strength is sufficient for every noble endeavor. Keep each of us enlisted in the ranks of those who serve God and mankind. Give us the assurance of the words of the Psalmist: "My defense is of God, Who saves the upright in heart" (Psalms 7:10).
In the Name of Jesus we pray. Amen.
