God is always working for us to do well in life, so when we are sitting in table and we are going to enjoy a delicious meal, we should be grateful, and give thanks for the blessings that the Lord does not give.
From a young age, children should be instructed to be grateful for the blessings they receive. God it gives us, especially when there are many children in the world who do not have the privilege of being able to sit at a table and eat surrounded by their loved ones.
