Prayer Offered for February 19, 2026

Upon invitation of the President, the following prayer was offered by Senator Timothy S. Grayson:
Almighty God, whose mercy is everlasting, whose grace is sufficient, and whose love is unconditional. Grant us wisdom as we deliberate the issues before us. Open our minds for better understanding and our hearts for a passion to serve those who look toward us for solutions to their challenges and difficulties. Grant the foresight needed to adequately plan for the unexpected and the will to be responsible stewards over what we have been blessed with. Be the lamp to our feet and light to our path as we navigate our way through the present and into the future.—AMEN.
