There being no objection, it was so ordered. With the deepest respect for the religious beliefs of all Alaskans, I offer the following prayer, Ecclesiastes 3:1-13, Time for Everything: There is a time for everything, And a season for every activity under the heavens: A time to be born and a time to die, A time to plant and a time to uproot, A time to kill and a time to heal, A time to tear down and a time to build, A time to weep and a time to laugh, A time to mourn and a time to dance, 2021-05-19 House Journal Page 1172 A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, A time to search and a time to give up, A time to keep and a time to throw away, A time to tear and a time to mend, A time to be silent and a time to speak, A time to love and a time to hate, A time for war and a time for peace. What do workers gain from their toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink and find satisfaction in all their toil – this is the gift of God. Father – What a time we have had this past year, we pray for those who are ill, that they will be mended. We pray for wisdom for all of us to know when it is time to speak and when it is time to stay silent. We pray that you would help us to make this a time to build and not to tear down. We pray that you would give us the beauty for ashes and the oil of joy in this year ahead. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Zulkosky.
