Heavenly Father, I thank You that You have not                                
left us alone.  You have promised to be with us                                
and to answer if we would call on You.  In Your                                
word, You have laid out a way of life for us that                              
works.  A way of loving our neighbor as ourselves,                             
of turning from selfishness and learning to think of                           
others first.  How many of our problems would                                  
disappear if all of us would just take Your words to                           
heart; if we would but humble ourselves and follow                             
Your unselfish path.                                                           
                                                                               
Father, my prayer today is that You will bless this                           
assembly with the wisdom they need to take those                               
actions which will promote righteousness in the                                
citizens of our state.  Under the guiding hand of                              
these that You have chosen to lead us, may Alaska                              
become a place where love prevails, and where we                               
all become our brothers' keeper.  God bless these                              
Senators in their work today and throughout the                                
legislative session.  In Jesus name I pray.    Amen.
