Without going into too much detail, my husband I have discerned that practicing NFP is a necessity at the current time. I am looking to see if anyone knows of a specific prayer for marital chastity that we could pray together during fertile times, when we’re abstaining. Most prayers for chastity I have seen center around pre-marital chastity and while they could work in a pinch, they tend to lack the intimacy and connection still needed by spouses even during abstension.

Anyone know of anything or should I write one myself?
 
Give peace in our times, O Lord, because there is none other that fights for us, but only you, our God.
V. Peace be within our walls,
R. And abundance within our towers.
Let us pray.
O God, from whom all holy desires, all right councils and all just works do proceed; give to us, your servants, that peace which the world cannot give, that both our hearts may be set to obey your commandments, and also that we, being delivered from the fear of our enemies, may pass our time, under your protection, in rest and quietness. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Wow, that’s a beautiful prayer.
Thanks for posting this ! 👍
 
Here is a portion of one prayer that seems to be appropriate:

O most Sacred Heart of Jesus, King and center of all hearts, dwell in our hearts and be our King; grant us by Your grace to love each other truly and chastely, even as You have loved Your spotless Bride, the Church, and have given Yourself up for her. Amen.
