A Simple Grace Before Meals

Father, thank You for this food, for the hands that grew it and prepared it, and for everyone gathered at this table.

Bless this meal to our bodies, and our time together to our hearts. Remember those who are hungry today, and teach us to share what we have.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

When to Pray This

Say this grace before any meal — a family dinner, a holiday table, or lunch alone at your desk. It is short enough for children to learn by heart and join in.

A Verse to Hold On To
