Since I came here to ask for prayers for my marriage, I’ve noticed a great many people going through the same thing. I was hoping this thread could evolve with people telling their story and adding their name to the list if they need prayers for their marriage. If everyone can copy the list and post it at the bottom of the prayers they are saying we can keep it simple. This is truly agonizing for us, don’t let anyone in need of help get forgotten.

Please pray for the marriages of the following individuals:
Brian, [add your name before this]
 
I’ll start with my story (from another thread).

My wife of 9 years is leaving me (and we have two boys aged 5 and almost 8). She’s living in the same house with us for the next six months (until I graduate from grad school–she convinced me to return to school so I could get a good paying job, which has cost me $40,000–doable with two incomes, not so much with one). I’m truly devastated and very angry. We’ve been going to Christian marital counselling for years and lately she had been reporting that things were “really good.” Long story short, her feelings for me died a long time ago, and she says she was lying to the counselor and me, and takes “full responsibility for that”. She evidently never wanted to confront our issues. We’ve been in trouble before and I’ve spent the last few years doing EVERYTHING in my power to show her I love her. But she’s done, for good this time. I need prayers. My sons are devastated and are praying that “Mommy and Daddy live in the same house forever.” She told them, without me, that she didn’t love me anymore and some other rather mean things. I don’t know where this anger comes from. I’ve done nothing but love her for the last few years. I wasn’t the best husband initially, but have grown substantially over the years, and honestly don’t know what more I could do right now or for the last few years for that matter. PLEASE PRAY FOR A MIRACLE! We need it. I love her, I don’t want to lose her, and I don’t want to miss out on half the childhood of my children. This is so wrong! She even said “I don’t want my feelings for you to come back.” I need prayers, I’m watching my family dissolve before me, and it’s utterly devastating.

Dearest God,

I ask that You and the angels help heal marriages in danger. May all be willing to release anger, fear and pain and I ask that the angels cleanse husbands and wives of all anger or resentment now. Please help to see each other through the eyes of love, that all effects of mistakes be undone in all directions of time. Please work with all marriages so that they may have harmony, romance, friendship, respect, honesty and great love for one another. Please renew their love.

Amen.

I will pray for you, and I will pray for your wife, whom in my opinion, needs psychiatric help. Something seems “off” about her behavior that is more than just falling out of love with you. I think her not being in love with you is a symptom of something bigger. Love to you and yours.

Lord please help all people in their marriages Amen

Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us ,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent , but with great confidence ,
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will ,
which is love and mercy itself . Amen

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
 
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left forsaken.

I empathize with you and your pain. I am asking for prayers for my marriage also which is in turmoil too. I pray everyday and I am doing everything possible to change myself for the better. For you and all those in turmoil over their marriage I pray …“O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left forsaken. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. Despise not my words, O Mother of the Word, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen.”

Sonia, since you are asking for prayers, I’ll add your name to the list. I’m trying to get people to add their names and then when each individual posts a prayer they’ll remember everyone on it instead of just one.

Oh, and THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Sonia, I have been praying for you since I read your thread. I add your intention (and a few others in similar situations) to a daily Chaplet of Divine Mercy and a Chaplet of St. Michael. THANK YOU. I am so devastated and your prayers are truly appreciated!

I added in your name. If you want your real name used, feel free to copy the list, paste it into a reply and then change it to your real name.

Dear Lord, we come to you as beggars, throwing ourselves at the foot of your cross. We can do nothing by our own power. Please come to our rescue. Save our marriages, restore lost love, perfect it in Your holy name, and preserve us form evil. St. Michael defend us, Mary intercede on our behalf, St. Raphael lead us back to one another, St. Rita of Cascia pray for our perseverance in marriage, St. Jude patron of hopeless cases and things almost despaired of, pray for miracles for the marriages of the following individuals: Michael, myself, Sonia, and Butterflylily, and all others who are fighting for their marriages. Soften hearts, restore a proper perspective on love and commitment, and rescue us. We are nothing without You O Lord.
