Prayers for Marriage

prayer8Lord Christ, I thank you for your love so strong.
May that love flow through me to others.
May I be patient when change comes slowly.
May I be kind when life seems harsh.
May I be gentle when others feel bruised.
May I be humble when things go well.
May I be peaceful when anger rises within.
May I forgive when wronged.
May I rejoice when the truth is discovered.
Love never fails, but I do.
May I persevere when the way is hard.

Amen.

A Wedding Blessing

May the God of Heaven so join you now, that you may be glad of one another all your lives. And when He that has joined you shall separate you, may it be with an assurance that He has but borrowed one of you to make both more perfect in the
resurrection. Amen.
