As we reflect that we really only pass any given day once - we are very temporal - we bow before the Almighty and I am going to quote a passage that I remember: "Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom; let not the mighty man glory in his might; let not the rich man glory in his riches; but let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me that I am the Lord saieth the Lord God Almighty." (Jeremiah 9:23-24) As we reflect on the authority and the privilege of our position and the temporalness of our world, we ask for Your eternal wisdom, Almighty God, we pray. In Jesus' name. Amen. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Weyhrauch. 2005-04-05 House Journal Page 0858 CERTIFICATION OF THE JOURNAL Representative Coghill moved and asked unanimous consent that the journal for the 85th legislative day be approved as certified by the Chief Clerk.
