Catholic / Orthodox Fapstronauts

Check this video out brother:

 

Get on to a scrict schedule, unless for a nessesary reason you can't one night, pick a time to go to bed, and to wake up. Same time every night. 9, 10, 11...NO LATER unless you really really really have to! The best success I've had is when I stuck to the same time everynight and every morning. When I laxxed, it effected my self control, and eventually even if indirectly I fell into the sin son of self abuse. Choose times to pray, and do it every day. As a start say the rosary every day, and Say the three hail Marys for purity. 3 times in the morning after you wake up, 3 times before you go to bed.

 

Opening Prayer:

O holy Saint Augustine, who has famously declared that “Our hearts were made for you, O Lord, and they are restless until they rest in you.”, aid me in my own search for our Lord that through your intercession I may be granted the wisdom to determine the purpose God has planned for me. Pray that I be blessed with the courage to follow God’s will even at times when I do not understand. Ask our Lord to lead me to a life worthy of His love, that I may one day share the riches of His kingdom. Petition our Lord and Savior to ease the burden of my problems and grant my special intention, and I will honor you all of my days.

Day Seven:

Glorious Saint Augustine, in your compassion, wisdom and grace, all who seek your aid do not leave empty handed. In this time of extreme anxiety, I entrust my present predicament to the power of your kind intercession. May you obtain for me the grace to have the special favor I ask for be granted. (State the nature of your problem or the special favor you seek)

Closing Prayers:

Glorious Saint Augustine I boldly ask for your intercession confident in your boundless wisdom and compassion. May this devotion lead me to a life dedicated to the fulfilling the will of God that I may one day be deemed worthy of sharing His Kingdom with you and all the saints for all eternity.

Our Father…
Hail Mary…
Glory Be…

St. Augustine, Pray For Us!

If you don't mind, I'd like to post the prayers of the angelic warfare confraternity here:


Dear Jesus, I know that every perfect gift, and especially that of chastity, depends on the power of Your providence. Without You a mere creature can do nothing. Therefore, I beg you to defend by Your grace the chastity and purity of my body and soul. And if I have ever imagined or sensed anything that could stain my chastity and purity, blot it out, Supreme Lord of my powers, that I may advance with a pure heart in Your love and service, offering myself on the most pure altar of Your divinity all the days of my life. Amen.

The 15 Hail Marys for Purity and the Members of the Angelic Warfare Confraternity:
1. For our social and cultural climate.
2. For our relationships.
3. For modesty in dress and movements.
4. For our five senses.
5. For our sensuality.
6. For our imagination.
7. For our memory.
8. For our power of estimation.
9. For our affectivity.
10. For our intellect.
11. For our will.
12. For our conscience.
13. For our hearts.
14. For self-surrender.
15. For love.

Closing Prayer
Chosen lily of innocence, pure St. Thomas, who kept chaste the robe of baptism and became an angel in the flesh after being girded by two angels, I implore you to commend me to Jesus, the Spotless Lamb, and to Mary, the Queen of Virgins. Gentle protector of my purity, ask them that I, who wear the holy sign of your victory over the flesh, may also share your purity, and after imitating you on earth may at last come to be crowned with you among the angels. Amen.

 

Please pray with me for our brother, Sursum Corda. Thank you for your charity x

 

My husband and I are Catholic... and he recently admitted to doing things he is not proud of. I am still collecting information on the subject, and I feel more confused than anything else... Greetings to you all!

 

If I may offer some advice, by way of my own regrets, if you aren't saying the rosary together regularly, I suggest starting.

 

I don't think they meant that the flesh itself is sinful, I believe they meant that PMO hurts the whole person. But it is not incorrect to say that after original sin was taken away by baptism humans still have concupiscence. To say that one isn't sinful or does not have concupiscence would be a grave error. Admitting one's own sinfulness is a grace of humility and prompts reliance on God, not necessarily barring oneself from improvement.

 

Wishing brothers and sisters a Merry Christmas!!!

 

Merry Christmas!

 

No, that would be Jesus, or otherwise Solomon.

 

and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here

- Matthew 12:42
​

Merry Christmas!

 

Poor Solomon became corrupted with lust, and fell into idolatry (cf. 1 Kings 11, or 3 Kings 11 if you're a Douay man), turning him into a fool. No amount of wisdom (or riches, or power, or...), it seems, can make mortals invulnerable to temptation. Virtue is not easy, my friends! Stay humble, if you can!

 

Hello fellow Christians! Just a public service announcement to let you know that a Roman Catholic group has been started. Our goal is to join together in Christ in order to fight PMO and become Saints one day. We will have regular group novenas, and we encourage members to post any and all things Catholic! Gob bless!

 

Quite right! Here is a quote from Pope Leo XIII's encyclical Aeterni Patris (1879)
"Let carefully selected teachers endeavor to implant the doctrine of Thomas Aquinas in the minds of students, and set forth clearly his solidity and excellence over others." (31)
The entire document is worth reading (you can find it here). St. Thomas Aquinas, pray for us!

 

Weep by the waters of Babylon, my friends...

 

I have heard it said that one cannot meet a pure soul who loves more than a repentant soul; ah! how I wish to give the lie to this statement!

Okay this may seem a little off the wall, but I would appreciate everyone's prayers daily for the rest of 2016, for Gordie Howe's intercession for my special intention.
