Prayers to St. Peter for the tongue-tied
Hi,
I've had a chapped and split lip for a while, and was looking for patron saints for lips, or mouth problems. I couldn't find any, but I did find that St. Peter is the patron saint of the tongue-tied, perhaps because he denied the Lord three times in panic at the start of His passion. But perhaps you could say some prayers to St. Peter for the healing of my lips, and for our mouths and tongues to be blessed by God in our words, speech, and singing to others. Also, it is interesting that Judas Iscariot betrayed his Lord with a kiss. Please pray to St. Peter to ask the Holy Ghost to explain that mystery to us.
St. Peter, pray that the Holy Spirit pours forth the Eternal Word from our lips, and our mouths praise the glories of God our Creator with tongues of fire!
I ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.
May God bless your immortal souls for to eternal life!
Joshua
