Does anyone say grace before meals, and if yes, would you like to share?

When you pray to thank God for your food, don't try to stick with the same prayer that you use every single time. just say" hey God, thanks for providing this meal for me. please bless it to the nourishments of my body, in Jesus names. Amen". and it doesn't have to be word for word. just make it your own prayer and whatever you say, mean it. don't just say it for the heck of saying because it looks and sounds good. hope i could be of some help.

Yes, it would be quite rude to serve anything that you yourself would not eat or drink unless you have a known problem with the dish or drink (recovering alcoholic or allergic to the food).Then again, if you had an aversion to something it would be understood if you did not serve it to anyone.\n\nSo yes, you really need to consume at least a little of whatever it is that you are serving to your guests for proper etiquette.

Say we are going to eat in a few minutes. Say, "there is handsoap in the bathroom if you would like to wash your hands". Or take the handsoap out from under the sink and say, "here is some hand soap if you want it". You could always be honest and say," ok I'm a germ freak, so if your like me, here is the soap."

"ALWAYS....!!!!!!!" ~ For as much as the world might have changed, some things are timeless....acknowledging another's kindness is always in 'fashion'...it is proper. Without a "Thank You..." it most certainly could be construed as a social slur or worse. It would show that you really do not care.\n"Please" is also a timeless courtesy, as well as "May I", or "Would You Mind if..."....Thus my reply to this is an absolute "YES"!!!! ~ I believe that this stands in all cultures. Thank You! *wink* (Though do what and as you will)

In addition to the story of the lepers above, thanksgiving is consistently given to God before meals. See: \n\nMatthew 15:36 \nMatthew 26:27 \nMark 8:6  \nMark 14:23 \nLuke 22:17\nJohn 6:11 \nJohn 6:23 \n\nWith love in Christ.

We are going to my sisters house and spending thanksgiving  there. Almost everyone is going to be there and I say this because we have a large family. This will be our first year with\nout our father he passed away 3-22-06 so we will have a very \nspecial prayer going out to him before we eat, and thank him for everything he has done .  So I want to say to you Have A Nice Thanks Giving.

How about homemade bread and preserves!  I think it is very 'primative' and makes me think of a lunch consisting of a cup of tea with bread and preserves.

I'm used to the same custom of saying provecho.  If your mouth is full, you don't say anything until you are able and then, even though the moment for saying provecho is over, you can still thank them for the dinner if they served or made it.

God Is Now Here!!! I really like that it sounds good to say. It sounds like an affirmation to say when you realize you're being pessamistic and negative and decide to change your life or mood and reaffirm to yourself that you are not alone and everything is fine, God is now here, its soothing like when you're a child and you have a nightmare and your mother comes in the room and says, "dont worry everythings ok Mamas here, shh" I really like that. Thankyou for the question you made my day :)

God shedding His wonderful grace on you and despite circumstances finally seeing the truth. It is nothing of your own power but of Gods mercy and grace. He chose us before the foundations of the Earth.\n\nEyelovesJesus: You are so sweet! God bless!

That passage is talking about when you gather at The Lords Supper (communion) it helps if you read the whole passage and not just a verse in it. It was very common for people to meet and eat with eachother in fellowship and worship. There is nothing wrong with it, but when you gather together for Communion, its not to get together to pig out.

There is a woman diagnosed of terminal illness...the pastor came and asked her last wishes...she instructed him everything from the color of the coffin to the songs that will be played...when the pastor was about to leave, she said "and oh! I want a fork in my right hand" the pastor look puzzled. she went on talking..."my grandma once told me this story and from then on, I have always done so, In all my years of attending social dinners I always remember that when the main course was cleared someone would say "keep your fork" because something better was coming like velvety chocolate, cake or dip-dish apple pie, something wonderful and with substance..when people asks "what;s with the fork?" I want you to tell them that "the best is yet to come"
