Kitchen Prayer

moregarlic

Found this and wanted to share it!  And this reminds me that I want to read their book, too . . . This is a blessing for a restaurant kitchen that I plan to hang up in our bakery, but I think it applies to a home kitchen as well, and really to any place of “work”.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Kitchen Prayer

by John Robbins, from May All Be Fed


May this kitchen be so filled with peace

that all who eat food prepared here receive peace

May this kitchen be so filled with happiness

that all who eat food prepared here receive happiness.

May this kitchen be so filled with good will

that working here is a joy.

Bless this kitchen.

Bless all who work here.

Bless the food that is prepared here.

May this kitchen and the work done here be a blessing to all who live.

    Oh my, that is so beautiful. I just hand wrote it out in the best penmanship I could muster and placed it above my stove. THANK YOU for sharing.

    A friend and I are considering beginning an organic and gluten free bakery in our area, and it is so important for me to keep in mind that the reason that I would begin an endeavor like that is to help nourish all those that I can. Thanks for the reminder

    I found this via SouleMama– and I’m SO very glad I did. I have a clip for inspiring quotes, prayers, and meditations hanging next to my kitchen sink. I’m going to copy this down and hang it there– so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

    Kate,
    Glad you enjoyed it! This hangs above my kitchen sink, and I love keeping other quotes around, also. Welcome.
