A Prayer of Married Persons
O merciful God, we beseech Thee ever to remind us that the married state is holy, and that we must keep it so. Grant us thy grace, that we may continue in faithfulness and love; increase in us the spirit of mutual understanding and trust, that no quarrel or strife may come between us. Grant us thy blessings, that we may stand before our fellows and in thy sight as an ideal family. And finally, by thy mercy, account us worthy of everlasting life: for Thou art our sanctification, and to Thee we ascribe glory: to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
The prayer is from A Pocket Prayer Book for Orthodox Christians of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America.
