Journal of the House


First Regular Session, 92nd General Assembly




THIRTY-EIGHTH DAY, Friday, March 14, 2003


         Representative Bearden in the Chair.


         Prayer by Chris Dunn, from the Office of Representative Carl Bearden


           Heavenly Father,


           Thank You for the gifts of grace and life for this new day.


           Your Word says that You foil the plans of the nations and that You thwart the purposes of the peoples. It goes on to say that Your plans stand firm forever, the purposes of Your heart stand through all generations. This morning we ask that Your plan be accomplished here today.


           Your Word asks, “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.” It goes on to say that, “the wisdom that comes from Heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.” Heavenly Father, we ask for this kind of wisdom today.


           Your Word says that You, “oppose the proud but give grace to the humble.” We ask for humility and submit ourselves to You today. We put our hope in You, Almighty God.


           In Your name and for Your glory we pray. Amen.


         The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
