Thursday, February 17, 1994
(Statewide Session)

Indicates Matter Stricken Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 10:00 A.M.

Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:

Lord, keep our trust strong and steadfast in You, never becoming overly anxious about tomorrow for we have been taught that "worry is interest paid before it is due." Keep us busy with things that matter most: that success is measured not by what we accumulate, but by the goals we set for ourselves; not by how much we have gained, but by how much we have given; not by how far we have traveled, but by what route we have taken. Make of our lives windows through which shines the precepts of Your teachings and mirrors to reflect our gratitude for Your blessings.

Hear us as we pray in praise and thanksgiving. Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.

After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of yesterday, the SPEAKER ordered it confirmed.

MOTION ADOPTED

Rep. G. BROWN moved that when the House adjourns, it adjourn in memory of Nancy Woodham, which was agreed to.
