Marriage Prayer
Lord, help us to remember when we first met and the strong love that grew between us.
To work that love into
practical things so that
nothing can divide us.
We ask for words both kind and loving and hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive.
Dear Lord, we put our
marriage into your hands.
Amen.

"..For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother
and be joined to his wife,
and the two shall become one flesh.
So then, they are no longer two but one flesh.
Therefore what God has joined together,
let not man separate."

Matthew 19: 5-6
