SECOND DAY, Thursday, January 5, 2006
The House met pursuant to adjournment.
Speaker Jetton in the Chair.
Prayer by Reverend James Earl Jackson.
Heavenly Father, You are so good to us and Your love for us is obvious. We have our health, loving families, sound minds, abundant provision and an opportunity to make a difference in this state. You continue to provide safe passage to and from our place of residence. How can we not pause to say thank You.
Loving Father, be merciful and gracious to us, bless us and cause Your face to shine upon us and among us. Give us wisdom and knowledge to make wise decisions, help us to honor and respect one another in spite of our apparent differences. May all bitterness, indignation, animosity and evil-speaking be put aside in order that the decisions made in this place be appropriate, timely and advantageous to this state as a whole.
Thank You for this New Year, thank You for new opportunities to serve and thank You for sustained friendships.
Now may Your grace and mercy abide with us all throughout this day.
We ask these things in the name of Your Son. Amen and amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
