In deepest respect for the religious beliefs of each person here, I invite you into a time of prayer and reflection. Loving God, I thank you for the safe arrival of each of these state legislators. I pray that each of us might see blessings throughout our day: in our relationships, in our interactions with our families, friends, and fellow legislators, and in the small, yet significant, moments. I pray for careful discernment as discussions are had and decisions are made about matters that affect the lives of our fellow Alaskans. May we all look at one another with kindness and love in the spirit of humility, no matter what position of power and privilege we may find ourselves in. May we use our positions of power to speak for those who are unable or cannot. God, I pray you bless and challenge these individuals to be their best selves now and every day, whether they are here in session or out and about. In the spirit of love and compassion I pray today, Amen. 2015-02-20 House Journal Page 0254 The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Hughes.
