There being no objection, it was so ordered. Father God in Heaven, We do thank you for this legislative body, and as we are assembled here today, bring clarity to the assignments set before us. Give us understanding for our brothers' and sisters' opinions. Help us to humble ourselves so we are better able to listen. Equip us to see right from wrong, strengthen us from weakness, and afford wisdom, which will provide us with insight that will help better our judgment. Father, help us to understand need from want, discern importance from trivial, and help us provide aid for those we seek to help while keeping us from overstepping our authority. Father God, to do this we ask for the ability to empty ourselves of our own desires and wants. Help us to separate 2017-04-27 House Journal Page 1232 ourselves from political posturing in an effort to allow sound judgment. Give us the words that we may be able to discuss without malice, enlighten without admonishment, and provide discourse without disdain. Father God, we thank you that our staff members who prepare to leave the capital city and return for the interim will arrive home safely. Those that have found new jobs we praise you for your faithfulness. We thank you for your love and ask that we desire to continue in that spirit to show love for each of our fellowmen. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Guttenberg.
