  • Monday Marriage Prayer

    Lord, heavenly Father,  Thou hast joined us in this holy wedlock that
    together, hand in hand, we courageously walk life’s journey. 

    Bless our
    home with Thy divine presence and fill our hearts with a love for Thee,
    who hast sent Thy Son into the world to hallow every walk of life.

    As we daily receive Thy divine forgiveness, make us also forgiving
    toward each other. 

    As Thou art merciful and kind, full of compassion
    and long-suffering, teach us likewise to be thoughtful, considerate,
    and reasonable as we face together the problems of our home.

    In our joys let us not forget Thee. 

    In our sorrows lets us not despair
    of Thy help. 

    Protect us as we go in and out of our home. 

    Keep us
    faithful and steadfast to Thee and Thy Word,
    through Jesus Christ our
    Lord.  Amen.

    From the Lutheran Book of Prayer
