    No. 1 STATE OF MICHIGAN Journal of the Senate 90th Legislature REGULAR SESSION OF 1999 Senate Chamber, Lansing, Wednesday, January 13, 1999. 12:00 Noon. In conformity with the requirements of the Constitution of the state of Michigan, the Senators of the 90th Legislature of the state of Michigan assembled in the Senate Chamber in the Capitol at Lansing this day (being the second Wednesday of January, 1999), at twelve o’clock noon, and were called to order by the Honorable Dick Posthumus, Lieutenant Governor of the state of Michigan and President of the Senate. 2 JOURNAL OF THE SENATE [January 13, 1999] [No. 1 Reverend Steven J. Fisher of First United Church of Christ of Richmond offered the following invocation: Almighty God, from whom comes the authority to govern and the particular privilege of self-government, with grateful hearts and high hopes, many gather in this place looking forward to the new year and the new legislative session. Grant Your wisdom to these Senators as they balance competing interests and priorities. Grant them Your courage to do right when they perceive their political self-interest to clash with the greater good. Grant them Your perspective that they might send away empty any seeking to abuse the political process while hearing the needs of the children and the voiceless and the most vulnerable among us. Grant them Your grace that they might enjoy their work and grow in respect for one another and remain worthy of the respect of their colleagues and their constituencies. Almighty God, bless these public servants, many of whom have sacrificed so much in their private lives to be here to make a difference for good for many in Michigan.
