The
Lord
was
pleased
that
Solomon
had
asked
for
wisdom
and
that's
what
I
pray
for
us,
that
we
have
wisdom,
discernment
and
understanding
and,
as
you
know,
God
gave
Solomon
more
than
anyone.
Wisdom
for
the
rest
of
his
life,
Glory
riches,
Fame
and
so
having
the
understanding
of
God
is
very
special
and
I
asked
for
that.
So,
let's
bow
our
heads
Most
Holy
Father,
as
we
as
the
members
of
the
Tennessee
113th
General
Assembly
begin
this
session,
I
humbly
pray,
the
same
prayer
that
King
Solomon
prayed
that
when
God
asked
him
what
he
wanted.
B
He
asked
for
wisdom
so
that
he
could
govern
wisely.
He
asked
for
the
peace
and
the
prosperity
of
the
people
and
that's
what
I
asked
for
the
people
of
Tennessee
as
we
come
together
and
govern
ing
father
I.
Ask
that
prayer
over
us
use
this
body
for
the
great
people
of
Tennessee
to
grant
them
peace,
prosperity
and
safety
and
father
I
reach
out,
especially
on
this
day
that
I
asked
you
to
re-establish
the
foundation
of
rebuilding
the
foundation
of
society,
which
is
our
home.
B
B
I
also
raised
before
you,
our
Department
of
Education,
where
our
teachers
are
struggling
daily
to
teach
and
work
with
our
children,
just
the
basics
of
Education
of
reading
and
writing.
So
father
give
our
teachers
a
special
blessing
this
day
watch
over
them
as
they
serve
the
children
of
our
state
every
single
day.
B
And
lastly,
father
I
recognize
you
as
our
creator,
and
there
is
nothing
we
can
accomplish
without
your
hand,
a
favor
as
the
two
Blind
Men
approached
Jesus
and
said:
Jesus
have
mercy
on
us
and
the
crowd
shouted
them
down,
but
Jesus
said
well.
What
do
you
want
and
they
said
Lord
we
want
to
see
so
I.
Ask
that
you
open
our
eyes
to
your
wisdom,
Into
Your
Glory,
when
you
create
the
foundations
of
this
Earth
that
we
live
on
and
through
the.
