One of the things that impresses me about the Word of Wisdom is the use of the word "thanksgiving."
D&C 89 : 11 states, ..."all these to be used with prudence and thanksgiving."
D&C 89:12 says, ..."I, the Lord, have ordained for the use of man with thanksgiving..."
We must always remember to give thanks.
When I am in a group of people and it is time to eat, I always make sure we say a prayer. But when I am alone, I forget...a lot. That is so sad and I need to do better about that. Clearly it has been commanded that we eat with thanksgiving. Always, always we need to remember exactly where all this wonderful food came from and who is responsible for giving it to us. It is a very important part of eating.
