I pray in public. Not because I want to come off as "Godly" to others or to remind other people to pray, but I pray because someone that I have never met made the food I'm about to put in my mouth and I'd really like God to be bless it before I eat it.



It's more of a safety thing. Lol

Sure, being careful to avoid the Pharisee on the street corner model.



Just a quiet thank you brings focus back to my day.

Yes, but like Linnie said, nothing showy. Just a quick "bless this food that someone may or may not have spit in...and especially bless the tomatoes that are probably half fish". I do forget sometimes though. "The humanity".

I pray no matter where I am with a grateful heart being keenly aware that everything I have comes from the Lord.

In the past, I've prayed before every single meal I ate simply because that is what I was taught to do. After I started to draw closer to God, though, I fell away from praying at every single meal, because I was only praying out of instinct. I was praying just to be praying, not to earnestly talk with God. So for me, the struggle wasn't so much when do I pray as much as it was to make sure I was earnestly praying. Not sure if that really answered your question, now that I think about it. lol

I used to pray with every meal.then it became habit so I stopped.I think from now on I will start to pray for my meals again.Change your praer habits keep it from becoming old.A friend toldme he prays after the meal.If it is no good why bless it he said.Just a passing thought........

What do you think man of god?

I noticed that one of my post got your attention do not worry,I just smiled,ok.Dennis
