"If you would bow your heads. Lord of Heaven and Earth we come before You today humbly and with adoration we acknowledge Your Lordship and bow our hearts to You. Your word declares that You have Your way in the whirl wind and You displayed on the wind driven ship with Your disciples that even the wind and the waves obey Your voice. We ask You today that You would give guidance to these our elected Representatives as they lead us their offices of government. They are faced with difficult questions but we know that You are Omnipotent God, have all the answers. In this Session of House of Representatives give these men the leading they need and the ears to hear Your voice. Our hearts are full of thanks today for this glorious country and state. That we have...that You have given us to live. We count them as gifts to You, help us to follow You that we may preserve them in liberty and freedom.
