    Our Father in Heaven,                                                                           
                                                                                                    
    We bow today with grateful hearts, with ready minds, and                                        
    with eagerness to work, knowing full well that we are                                           
    dependent on You for grace in our health and our abilities.                                     
    So, we bow here to ask for help to speak wisely and grace to                                    
    hear one another in our deliberations.                                                          
                                                                                                    
    Our hearts are grateful because of this time in history that You                                
    have given us to live in, the government and its processes to                                   
    deal with, and the personal liberty we have inherited to both                                   
    enjoy and protect.  Our minds are ready to work collectively                                    
    with the awareness that we need wisdom from above to guide                                      
    us.  We endeavor to think with openness, to be challenged or                                    
    refreshed, and taught by our fellow legislators.  We                                            
    acknowledge the beauty of Your creation and the greatness of                                    
    the people in this land and wonder at the spirit in us to live                                  
    free.  We thank You for those who have trusted us to this                                       
    position.
