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:
Gracious Lord and Father, we are grateful for these daily moments of prayer when in communion with You the swift pace of our lives is halted and its fever of haste melt away. By waiting patiently for You, we see more clearly, think more constructively, make decisions more worthily. Beyond all our desires, so often colored by self-interest, we would seek Your way. Give us a faith fit to live by, a self fit to live with, and a cause fit to live for.
We pray to our God Who is the same yesterday, today and always.
Amen.
