The Senate assembled at 12:00 Noon, the hour to which it stood adjourned, and was called to order by the PRESIDENT.
A quorum being present, the proceedings were opened with a devotion by the Chaplain as follows:
The Psalmist declares:
"Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths."
(Psalm 25:4)
Please bow with me as we pray:
Holy God, just as we read that the Psalmist called upon You for moral guidance, so do we all equally admit our need for direction. In our personal lives, in our collective life here in South Carolina, in all that we seek to do and to say: we need You to teach us Your way. By the Spirit's grace, Lord, grant to each member of this Senate insights that they themselves can readily translate into wise leadership decisions. And as they in turn lead and direct all of us, may it be that we, too, sense Your divine guidance: to the glory of Your Son, our Savior, in whose blessed name we pray.
Amen.
