A Note About Marriage Prayers
After nearly ten years, our daily Marriage Prayer emails have now come to an end. The final prayer was sent on August 11, 2026.
The Marriage Prayers website will remain here, so you can continue reading and praying through the hundreds of prayers in our archives whenever you need encouragement.
Thank you for praying alongside us all these years. It has been such a privilege to share this ministry with you.
With love,
Darlene and Michael Schacht

Teach Us to Leave Room for Grace—Today’s Marriage Prayer
Marriage has a way of reminding us that neither one of us has it all together. We forget things. We misunderstand each other…
Teach Us to Choose Grace Before Being Right—Today’s Marriage Prayer
There are moments when we know we’re right. We have the facts, we remember the conversation, and we’re sure our perspective is the correct one.
Teach Us to Be Thankful for Each Other—Today’s Marriage Prayer
There was probably a time when we thanked You often for bringing us together. We saw each other as an answer to prayer, and we noticed all the little things that made us smile.
Teach Us to Pray Together More Often—Today’s Marriage Prayer
