Saying Grace At Every Meal

Do you say grace at your meal?
giving thanks to God for your food
recognizing that the Lord provided it
being God who does everything good

God the great creator in the beginning
having made all with His hands
showing all we have is from Him
all the world created in all the lands

Have a think about how food came
everything has a beginning from a seed
that seed grows and grows and grows
all originated by God, all His creed

It's funny how when given a gift
we quite easily can say thank you
but when given no end of gifts
speechless we become, words are few

So let's give our grace always to God
for all we have comes from our provider
be grateful and thankful from our heart
prayerfully looking to your divine minder!

Hi Gordon, I agree, we often forget to say grace( thank you) for each meal. For God did provide it. Thanks for sharing such a write. Have a nice day. Happy Easter:-) Alexis
