Chastity Devices?

[littlestsouls2]

T It doesn’t matter what I do; I’ve even fallen DURING prayer.
Why won’t I stop?

Trust in God! Grace makes us partakers of the divine nature; it is more powerful than all the demons.

If you possess any good-will, it is an inestimable gift from God. No one - not even the Saints - have ever overcome a single temptation by their own strength. This is an absolute impossibility. All good, without exception, comes from God. When we are humble and acknowledge this, we are sure to attract God’s favour.

The key to the Saints’ holiness was their trust and fidelity. Firstly, they trusted in God. By trusting in Him, they opened their hearts to His grace; they let themselves be led by Him; they were protected by Him: ‘Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have hoped in thee’ (Ps. 33:22). Secondly, they were obedient and faithful. They prayed frequently; they received the Sacraments; they humbled themselves profoundly; they avoided idleness; they avoided near occasions of sin.

Don’t place any trust in your resolutions; instead, place all your trust in God, Who is the Source of these good resolutions, and without Whom it is impossible to keep them.

“Knowest thou the shortest way to arrive at Heaven? It is that of confidence in My merits and fidelity to grace.” (Jesus to Sr. Benigna Consolata)

“Is not My strength superior to every weakness?” (Jesus to Mother Mary of the Divine Heart)

First of all, if you were to look up chastity devices online, you will find that they are very expensive for what they are.

Second of all, I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT look them up online because they are generally associated with “adult” sites. That being said, they’re probably available on Amazon.

Why are they so expensive? Because 99.99% of the time they are associated with adult “toys” and are part of a sexual culture. And guys are willing to spend a lot of money to indulge themselves in sexual culture.

In other words, if you have a problem with masturbation, the last thing you want to do is turn your…parts…into a focal point of sexual fetish.

Consider Sexaholics Anonymous, which can provide you accountability, support, and working through steps towards sexual “sobriety.”

There is likely a meeting near you, and you will find fellowship, understanding, and a path to chaste living. It can be a wonderful, practical complement to frequent resort to the sacraments, especially penance and Holy Communion.
