REGULAR SESSION BEGINNING TUESDAY, JANUARY 10, 2023
________
The House assembled at 10:00 a.m.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk, Jr., as follows:
Our thought for today is from Proverbs 112:7 "They are not afraid of evil tidings; their hearts are firm, secure in the Lord."
Let us pray. The source of our strength O Lord comes from You, as we are empowered by Your mercy. God of light, be near us in times of trouble and fix our heart on Your promises. Our foundation is trust in You O my God. With such a God, our hearts are firm, and our lives are secure. Bless and keep our first responders who care for and keep us safe. Let Your light shine on our World, Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, Staff, and all who labor in this vineyard. Protect our women and men, especially those who have given their very selves for our country to keep us safe. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayers. Amen.
