Prayer: Prayer for My Husband
Blessed St. Joseph, husband of Mary, you loved without spotlight and protected without applause. I bring my husband to you. Watch over his work: give him honest provision and freedom from crushing worry. Watch over his health, seen and unseen. Watch over his heart: keep it gentle, faithful and brave. Watch over his faith: when it falters, carry him as you carried the Child. Teach me to love him the way Mary loved you: with patience, with prayer, and with room for God between us. And when I cannot reach him — lead him, as you led your family, safely home.

A prayer for a faithful husband and wise discernment
If you are praying for a husband, begin with this short prayer and name the qualities that matter: faith, honesty, kindness, responsibility and mutual freedom. Ask Saint Joseph to help you grow in those virtues too, to recognize a healthy relationship and to release the pressure to force a particular person or timetable.
Saint Joseph is honored as the husband of Mary and guardian of the Holy Family. That tradition can guide prayer for marriage, but it cannot promise a spouse or control another person's choice. Let prayer accompany discernment, trusted counsel, healthy boundaries and patient participation in community life.
A novena for a husband
Praying this nine days in a row for one man changes two hearts. Many wives begin on a Wednesday, St. Joseph's weekly day, or in the month of March, his month. Add one line with his name and his current burden — prayers with names in them are harder to abandon.
