We are thankful for our many blessings, for our families and friends, and for the opportunity of public service. I ask today that we remember words from the Gospel according to Matthew: Whatsoever you wish that others do unto you, do so to them, for this is the Law of the Prophets. (Matthew 7:12) And as we go about our daily lives, may we have: Courage: courage as we face difficult, challenging decisions; Wisdom: wisdom to find our common ground; and Forgiveness: forgiveness of ourselves, and forgiveness of others, knowing that the road ahead is not easy. 2017-03-14 House Journal Page 0522 Finally, I ask that we remember the message from the angels when they appear in scripture: Have no fear. Have no fear. And I ask these things in the name of all those, remembered and forgotten, known and unknown, present and absent, all of the helpers of mankind. Amen.
