Men (and women) ought to pray always.

“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’


A very good rule to go by.

This was pretty funny

But on a serious note... Matthew 6 says that it's a sin to pray in public (like at a restaurant), and there's only one acceptable prayer:


5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

7 And when you pray, do not keep on babblinglike pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.

8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

9 “This, then, is how you should pray:

“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’

Someone needs to make sure Mikey and the other one sees this. It will help them a lot

That does help me a lot, it just confirms that you can pray over any or all parts of your meal, and it makes no difference at all, because there is only one prayer that God will hear from you, that is a prayer of repentance and one seeking forgiveness. So go ahead and wolf it down, it does not matter if you do or if you don't.

I’ve noticed some of you people look really awkward in restaurants. Hopefully this will help
