“Simon Peter answered, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words (the message) of eternal life.

“It pays to pray out loud before meals!”
“In a hotel in Germany my wife and I were having lunch so as usual I gave thanks. A young couple a few tables down heard me and came up to us after the meal.

We’ve taken advantage of that offer many times. It pays to pray out loud before meals!” – Ernie Klassen
