Chapter 6
The pair held hands over the table.“Lord,”Colin began.“We thank you for these the gifts of your bounty,we also give thanks for bringing together two friends to share this wonderful meal,so lovingly prepared.May you watch over and guide us in our efforts to serve you in our daily lives.Amen.”
“Amen,”Martin repeated softly.
The two began to eat.
“Martin,this is fantastic.”
“Thanks,it was fairly simple to put together really.”
“Well,I don’t think I could have done it,”Colin said.“I don’t remember you ordering any of this stuff from the supermarket.”
“I had it all delivered on your day off.”
“Why?”
“Oh,well it just kind of worked out that way,”Martin said,lowering his head andputting in another mouthful of food.His appetite wasn’t the best;he was still too keyed up about the rest of the meal coming off okay,to be able to enjoy himself.
