Sustainer of wholeness, Provider of life.
Thank you for the food and drink,
that nourishes our bodies and heals our hearts.
May each bite be a reminder of your ever-present nearness.
May every flavor awaken us to the beauty of your creation.
For this meal,
and for this company,
we thank you.
Reflection: I am a notorious junk-food advocate. Well, I should restate that. I WAS a notorious junk-food advocate. In the last few weeks, I have become increasingly aware of what I put into my body. I write this prayer as a way of reminding myself of God's presence within the food I eat. Eating as a student is something I always seem to be doing in a hurry - rarely taking time to notice flavors and sadly, rarely taking time to even CHEW properly. Finding God in mealtime is something I am certainly working on.
