tinytherese Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 This blessing reminds me of what famous chastity speaker Jason Evert said about when he married his wife. They didn't have a traditional blessing with a priest but he and his wife prayed the "Prayer of Tobius" that is found in Sacred Scripture where Tobius says a prayer with his wife before consumating their vows.

The other is just kinda weird... no offense. EDIT: maybe just weird for me, as obviously it appeals to some people and is a very old custom.

EDIT: maybe just weird for me, as obviously it appeals to some people and is a very old custom.[/quote] In my thinking, we often surround sacred acts with holy things. For example, though Baptism can validly be administered with any water, water that has been specially blessed for the purpose is to be used (except in the case of an emergency). In a like manner, as the marital embrace is a sacred, as I see it, it should ideally take place in a bed that has been hallowed by a blessing.

TotusTuusMaria Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 i am seeing the thought and all behind it and how it makes sense and all, but ... its just awkward... and there are some impractical things about the custom existing in our age, but... i guess nothing hurts in any blessing... it only helps, but ... yeah, it is just odd. in the movie the two are obviously very uncomfortable.
