Heavenly Father,
We come before You with grateful hearts, giving thanks for this meal and the many blessings You have bestowed upon us. We acknowledge that without Your grace and provision, we have nothing.
We humbly ask that You bless this food and those who have prepared it. May it nourish our bodies and give us strength to serve You.
We also lift up in prayer those who are less fortunate and in need of a meal. We ask for Your love and provision to be upon them.
We give You all honor, glory, and praise, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
