Journal of the House

First Regular Session, 92nd General Assembly

FOURTH DAY, Tuesday, January 14, 2003

            Representative Townley in the Chair.

            Prayer by Reverend James Earl Jackson.

              Heavenly Father, even as it is written, “The Lord has heard my supplication, the Lord receives my prayer,” so may You hear and receive our prayer.

              We come in simple dependence upon Your grace and rest in simple faith upon Your greatness.

              Grant us expanse of vision that we might see the immense possibilities arrayed before us this day.

              Grant us out of generosity of Your wisdom: true knowledge and insight that we might rightly conduct the affairs of this state.

              Instruct us, teach us, and guide us in our course of action this day that our accomplishments may be of eternal consequence.

              Father, may Your grace and mercy cover Annie Reinhart and her family seeing her through surgery to recovery.

              Now, may the grace of our Lord, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all. Amen.

            The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
