What are some good prayers to say before Thanksgiving dinner?
Thanksgiving Prayers or blessings are typically said once all guests have sat down at the table and before they start to eat. Sometimes when asked to say a Thanksgiving Prayer I’ve been known to choke, stammer, and stutter. It’s not that I don’t feel grateful and wish to give thanks for our bounty, it’s just that in front of 16 people who are all suddenly dead quiet, it can be a bit intimidating. I learned a few years back that having a Thanksgiving Prayer prepared or memorized can avert such stressful situations. If you don’t know what you should say, but want to add a Thanksgiving Prayer to your day, try one of the following. Psalm 31:19 “How great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you bestow in the sight of men on those who take refuge in you.” More at the URL below.
