bcpianogal View Profile History	praying at Mcdonalds Posted : 16 Mar, 2010 11:07 AM I usually do pray at fast food places. When I'm by myself, I just say a quick silent prayer; I doubt anyone even notices that I do that, though. When I'm with family or friends, one person usually prays out loud for the whole group. I figure that (1) I pray at home before a meal, so why wouldn't I pray in a restaurant before a meal? and (2) not praying because of what others might think is nearly as bad as denying that I'm a Christian out of fear of persecution. I'm no saint. Don't think for a minute that's what I'm saying! But praying in restaurants is something that I've done all my life...I was raised doing that, so it's pretty natural for me to continue to do so. Post Reply

He deserves worship, praise an thanxs always... I give thanxs over all meals wether they are served at home or out in any resturant, including fast food. I believe these children you speak of have been taught to do a simple jesture of thanxs befitting a KING...Bless the lil ones for they are the next generation an Bless thier parents for teaching them well....jus my 2 cents...xo Post Reply

View Profile History	praying at Mcdonalds Posted : 16 Mar, 2010 08:57 PM I don't ask God to bless my food. If I am eating at McDonalds I pray for protection from it! :ROFL: Thunder Post Reply

DontHitThatMark View Profile History	praying at Mcdonalds Posted : 17 Mar, 2010 12:50 PM Yeah, I do. I don't really think it's "necessary"...but it's probably best to thank God and pray about everything. I don't think anybody does that very often...I know I don't:dunce::prayingm: :peace::peace: Post Reply

View Profile History	praying at Mcdonalds Posted : 18 Mar, 2010 10:57 PM I pray before I eat, even in McDonalds. Sometimes I forget and my beloved 8 year old always corrects me, I get a dirty look and he has this shocked tone, "Mommy, we didn't pray!" Last time he told me that we were in Subway and I think the whole store heard, so he prayed. I think the classic is at restaurants when he asks the waitress a million questions and wants to know why she doesn't pray over the food before she serves it to the people. Post Reply
