While this may seem like SPAM at first glance, it isn’t. These are options that I am using or have used in the past.
If the “P” word also comes into play, there is software that can help. I just installed software from
safe eyes. Thus far I haven’t found any loop holes in it. It has a special option that requires you to call tech support if you want to uninstall, log out, or change your options. While it does cost money ($50/year), it’s better than anything I’ve tried thus far.
A free option, that relies on an accountability partner is from
X3 Church. While they are a protestant ministry, their software can be helpful. Reports of your internet activity can be sent to an accountability partner on a prescribed basis. If your partner also struggles with this, then the report simply lists how controversial the sites were according to a weighting system. The report shows a date and time of the violation, and also reports if the software is turned off. For approximately $15, there is a full version that offers more options to you.
There are other software options that are on the net as well. You just need to search for them.
As far as your struggles go, I’ve been there and pray that I will never go back. It can be discouraging going to Confession all the time, but God’s grace will trump all. I will keep you in my prayers.
