Journal of the House


Second Regular Session, 93rd General Assembly




FOURTEENTH DAY, Monday, January 30, 2006

The House met pursuant to adjournment.


            Speaker Jetton in the Chair.


            Prayer by Reverend James Earl Jackson.


              We give praise and thanks to You, O God, we praise and give thanks; Your wondrous works declare that Your Name is near and they who invoke Your Name rehearse Your wonders.


              You have brought us to this place of exaltation. For promotion and power come from nowhere on Earth, but only from You. You promote one and depose another.


              Lord God, we put out of our mind the things that are behind us and reach forth unto those things which are before us. We have much to accomplish in this session and refuse to be hindered by looking back at unfulfilled promises, personal disappointments, or fixating on past victories. We press forward with our eyes upon You, for we trust in You.


              Heavenly Father, with Your help, Your wisdom, and Your guidance, we all can play a vital role in shaping a great future for our state and its people. With that in mind, we conduct the business at hand.


              Now may the grace of our Lord rest and abide with us all; to Him be the glory both now and forever.


              For it’s in the name of Your Son we pray. Amen and amen.


            The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.


            Representative Rector assumed the Chair.
