Yes, I do pray when I eat. Most especially when we in the family are together in the table. Before eating and after eating.

I dont actually pray before eating but i do pray before going to bed. I tried to practice praying before eating but i guess my hubby was use to it that we right away eat without praying so it becomes a habit for us. I tried to change that though since i dont want our kids to get use to that habit.

Yes. I do agree. Better that you will get use to it so that your children will inherit it too.

Yes my son always do the sign of the cross and say a prayer for us when we are gathered around the table for dinner. It keeps us together. A family that prays together stays together.

That is true. Prayer will bond families not only that more specially it will bond us to God also. Praying is just like talking to Him. One or two or more that pray to HIM..GOd is always listening.

Yes, I grew up with Christian parents so I was always taught to pray before eating and to thank the good Lord everyday for everything. I even pray at night before going to bed.

I usually pray before eating. Many people on earth are unfortunate to have nothing to eat so we should be thankful to God. But sometimes, I forget to pray and just realize it while eating already. I would still pray and give thanks to God. The foods we eat are blessings from God and we should just be thankful for it.

i try to pray before i eat to thank god for the food and another day. i also teach my kids to pray before we eat and sometimes my daughter is the one who reminds us when we don't. she always says the blessing i think its so cute hearing a 4 year old thanking god for her food and she always prays for her family to.

Yes, Because through prayer we will be close to GOd and we really need to thank HIm in everything He has given unto us. THanks for sharing that. God bless to everybody in your family!
