Second Regular Session, 92nd General Assembly
SEVENTEENTH DAY, Thursday, February 5, 2004
The House met pursuant to adjournment.
Representative Ruestman in the Chair.
Prayer by Reverend Donald W. Lammers.
(By February 5th, the average American wage earner has earned enough to pay his/her food bill for the entire year of 2004.)
God, our Father, we marvel at the abundant resources of our Nation for food production. We marvel even more at the ingenuity, the talent, and the hard work of those who work in agriculture and provide such an abundance of food at such affordable cost. We feel secure and protected as we live in a state that is so much a part of food production in our land.
Guide our vision to every part of our nation and the entire world where people are hungry, and give us the ability to feed them.
Be with us throughout all our work of this day.
We pray for the safety of all who travel the highways and the airways during the volatile weather of this day. And we pray for all who maintain our highways and airports.
We pray for our men and women in the armed forces. May their worthy missions be accomplished. And may they soon return safely home.
We pray to You, who are our God forever and ever. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
The Journal of the sixteenth day was approved as corrected.
