NO. 46
REGULAR SESSION BEGINNING TUESDAY, JANUARY 14, 2025
________
The House assembled at 10:00 a.m.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk Jr. as follows:
Our thought for today is from 1 Peter 5:4: "And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory."
Let us pray. Love, power and glory are ours as we receive such wonderful things from our Lord who loves us and grants us everything we need. Bless and keep our defenders of freedom and first responders safe as they care for us. Be our guide for life as we receive your love for us. Look in favor on our World, Nation, President, State, Governor Speaker, Staff, and all who labor in this vineyard. Bless and keep safe our Armed Forces and those who suffer wounds and hidden wounds. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayers. Amen.
