Please pray for me that I can overcome masturbation and have the grace to be sexually pure. It seems as if there is no hope for me. I pray for myself, but I seem to always fall. I need prayers…😦
 
Jesus please help our friend to find ways to avoid this fault that causes so much disappointment and sorrow. Please inspire strategies to avoid whatever triggers this problem. Please give this person the focus in life that lessens the propensity to this failing.

Jesus, Mary, please help this well-intentioned person to find peace and appropriate channels for distraction and growth.

Bless you, Trishie
 
Remember, o most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, sought thy help, or asked thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, o Virgin of Virgins, my Mother. To thee I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in they mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
 
Lord, we come to you in our weakness. Help us in times of temptation. Cover us with your precious body and blood. I lift up to you scapularkid8. Purify his thoughts and deliver him from the occasions to sin Lord.

This we ask in Jesus’ name. Amen.
 
I will pray for you, scapularkid8! :gopray:

Here are two prayers which I hope may be of help to you:

Prayer for Purity

Jesus, Lover of chastity, Mary, Mother most pure, and Joseph, chaste guardian of the Virgin, to you I come at this hour, begging you to plead with God for me. I earnestly wish to be pure in thought, word and deed in imitation of your own holy purity.

Obtain for me, then, a deep sense of modesty which will be reflected in my external conduct. Protect my eyes, the windows of my soul, from anything that might dim the luster of a heart that must mirror only Christlike purity.

And when the “Bread of Angels becomes the Bread of me” in my heart at Holy Communion, seal it forever against the suggestions of sinful pleasures.

Heart of Jesus, Fount of all purity, have mercy on us.

Prayer to St. Joseph for Purity

Guardian of virgins, and holy father Joseph, to whose faithful custody Christ Jesus, Innocence itself, and Mary, Virgin of virgins, were committed; I pray and beseech thee, by these dear pledges, Jesus and Mary, that, being preserved from all uncleanness, I may with spotless mind, pure heart, and chaste body, ever serve Jesus and Mary most chastely all the days of my life. Amen.

I will pray for you as I pray for myself. May we wake up to the completeness of God making us whole. May we take our yearnings to the Blessed Mother who can soothe all lonliness and longing. May we rely on the Spirit of God to strengthen us in our resolve and may we know the love of Christ that abounds to help us fight sin. Amen and God bless you. Kate
 
Dearest Blessed Mother, wrap your loving mantel around scapularkid8 and present him (her?) to your Divine Son. Please obtain for him the gift of perfect purity. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of death. Amen.
 
Prayers coming to you from your neighbor in Nebraska. I would like to tell you this is an easy struggle to overcome. It can be difficult. Something a lot of us face. But the good news is, it can be dealt with as other habits or compulsions. Will pray for you and for God to give you the wisdom and strength to remain pure.
