I have had problems with pornography most of my life and God has given me much strength in this battle! Yet, I still had a fall about 2 weeks ago. I know I am forgiven, and I have forgiven myself, yet sometimes with this problem my mind won’t let me totally forget about the problem until after a certain amount of days pass. Please pray that I have gentleness and patience with myself as God builds me back up again, and also, please pray that 2014 is the year I learn to totally avoid this evil problem of pornography. I know God wants me to be completely pure in heart, to always trust in Jesus of course, but to also live up to the values of chastity. It is right around the corner and maybe your prayer with help me turn the corner in this problem. Thank you all.
 
Lord please fill this struggling person with love of God, love of others in the most healthy way.
Help him to overcome unhealthy addictions and to live as the person You create him to be.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now ever shall be world without end
Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen

Praying that the Lord may strengthen you with all necessary graces and enable you to overcome pornography.

O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

Praying for you. If I may ask: what is your prayer schedule like? I know that, for me, having a regular, daily prayer schedule was what helped me finally turn the corner. I pray at regular intervals throughout the day at the suggestion of a priest I know and I found it immensely helpful.
 
Dear lord, I become before you in full hearted truth. I pray to you, to help me with the relationship of the man that I have only truly loved. Please absolve all the selfish & childish things I’ve done in the past. Help me repent & ask for forgiveness for my sins. Help me fill this void that I feel I will always have without him. He is my whole, my completeness in life, he is what makes me a fuller better person. For every woman there is one man, he is The man. He is the one.

Years ago I asked begged pleaded to you as I lied on the ground in tears for you to save my life in my darkest hour. I was lost. Meeting him was the answer to my prayer, my peace. He has been with me through the most trying times. Please forgive me for ever doubting your will & being too afraid to believe you answered my prayer with such an incredible man.

It was at your will that you brought us together & I ask that you please bless us & help us find our way back to one another’s hearts. I ask that you help give us strength to see our true worth in one self & for one another. I ask you to help me with my selfish ways, help me to be his strength in times of weakness, strength to hold him up, the strength to heal his heart & help him feel whole again. I seek your blessing in our relationship that nor far & away that nothing will keep us apart. Please I ask that he sees my true character & beliefs, that without him I am fully lost. I I seek your blessing of patience & protection from temptation or evils that may fall upon our paths. I pray to you lord to answer my prayers for his successful career & family. I please ask that he sees my full potential, & the truthfulness of love I have for him. Please god, please, I ask that you guide him towards a better path in life. Bless his family of the fruitfulness of your love & Your power of protection with every step. Keep him safe, healthy, wherever he may go. Please hear my prayer so that he may always have your protection.

I ask that you bless us again, at your will, to one day have my best friend back & be in each other’s arms, forever. Lord please don’t take take one of the few things in my life that I know is absolute, it was only the beginning. If love finds him again, I swear to you lord, I will hang on for my dear life & never question letting go.

I speak these words to you in prayer every night in full truth. It will be my reminder of what devotion I have to you, the love & the faith I have.
Lord thank you for hearing my prayer.

Amen

Hi there. Thanks for the prayers!

My prayer schedule is pretty good. I would like to be more consistent in prayer. Instead of praying for just a little one day, then a lot the next, I’d like to have some more consistent time, as I think it would help me grow in virtue. I do make a good attempt to go to Daily Mass when possible, Adoration 1 or 2 times a week, and Daily Rosary. It is this schedule that certainly helps me. It is the consistent practice of these prayers that I would like to have, so that when I start to conquer bad habits, I don’t get curious and turn to them out of either bad curiosity or loneliness. I need to learn that I will feel lonely in prayer and that is okay too.
