The Senate assembled at 10:30 A.M., the hour to which it stood adjourned, and was called to order by the PRESIDENT Pro Tempore, Senator DRUMMOND.
A quorum being present, the proceedings were opened with a devotion by the Chaplain as follows:
Beloved, hear a word from the Book of Exodus, Chapter 33 (vv. 9,11):
"When Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the entrance of the tent, and the Lord would speak with Moses...
Thus the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend."
Let us pray.
Lord God, You dwell in the highest heaven. You dwell beyond mankind's loftiest thoughts... beyond our highest hopes!
You also dwell in our hearts!
Out of the cloud at his tent You spoke to Moses... as a friend!
So speak to each of us!
Help us defeat the evil in the world, beginning with the cleansing of our own minds.
Sometimes we are a bit depressed because we cannot please all our constituents.
Give us, O Lord, the peace of mind that comes with knowing that we have squared our consciences with You. And Yours will be the glory today!
Amen.
