            Prayer by Representative Ed Emery.

              O GOD, OUR FATHER, history and experience have given us so many evidences of Thy guidance to nations and to individuals that we should not doubt Thy power or Thy willingness to direct us.

              Give us the faith to believe that when God wants us to do or not to do any particular thing, God finds a way of letting us know it.

              May we not make it more difficult for Thee to guide us, but be willing to be led of Thee, that Thy will may be done in us and through us for the good of America and all mankind. This we ask in Jesus' name. Amen.
