When you sit down to eat, pray. When you eat bread, do so thanking Him
for being so generous to you. If you drink wine, be mindful of Him who has
given it to you for your pleasure and as a relief in sickness. When you dress,
thank Him for His kindness in providing you with clothes. When you look at the
sky and the beauty of the stars, throw yourself at God’s feet and adore Him who
in His wisdom has arranged things in this way. Similarly, when the sun goes
down and when it rises, when you are asleep or awake, give thanks to God, who
created and arranged all things for your benefit, to have you know, love and
praise their Creator.
St. Basil the Great
