Psalm ch55v16-23

late again...dang...

oh well..nothing for it but to roll on...a Psalm of David for yesterday...

something i've wondered about is: where'd we get the habit/tradition of praying over a meal?...i know there's probably a lot of answers that can be found in Scripture and other places, but this passage seemed as good an answer as any...

v16But I call to God...v17Evening, morning and noon...

the rest of the passage goes on to describe how God rescues David from hardship and suffering, delivering His child and bringing justice to the wicked...but i just got hung up on that one little segment: Evening, morning and noon...that's usually when we eat, isn't it?...and if it's something that we're doing on a regular basis every day, isn't it prudent to take some time before a meal to spend in prayer?...not just blessing the food, but a little gratitude that there's food to be had in the first place, and that you're in a state of health that allows you enjoy the food...

just a little time with God to say "thanks"...try it out...
