Praying in public (subway incident)

I have the privilege of meeting a man today at subway in Antioch. He caught my attention for the fact that before he ate he bowed his head and blessed his food. I had just received my food and sat it on the table. Once he was finished I walked up to him and told him how glad I was to see that. He said "thank you". As I turned to walk away another man approached me, stuck out his hand and shook mine. He said he was thinking the same thing I thought. He then shook the mans hand that was praying also. He and his wife had also noticed the man praying and commended him on his faith and the fact he isn't scared to show it publicly. Not very many people would do that in public. I do, but I don't do it as much as I should. I know that I'm guilty myself of forgetting to ask his blessing over the food that he's responsible for. If it wasn't for him I wouldn't have a lot of things in my life. As Christians we should all have a relationship with GOD and talk to him on daily basis.We should also not be afraid of our faith and to show we are faithful! Don't let people judge you and how you live your life. This man, who I don't know his name, made an impression on me. I thank JESUS for that!
