Watch over our military personnel as they put their lives on the line to confront the evils that threaten the freedom of the human family. I ask your blessings upon our state officials that gather with their hearts and minds directed toward the common good and betterment of the good citizens of Alaska. Give them the courage to face the incredible challenges before them, and provide the grace that gives them a hopeful vision with the limited resources at hand. May they know the confident assurance and support 2016-04-01 Senate Journal Page 2278 of good hearted Alaskans who have made and will make sacrifices for the greater good and continued success of this great state.
