The means that help us practice holy purity are:
1. Intense work done with a sense of responsibility.
2. Fleeing from occasions of sin.
3. Guarding of our heart and our senses…guarding our eyes.
4. Mortification, which controls our feelings and our body, giving us the self-mastery of God's children.
5. A real relationship with Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.
6. Frequent Confession; and
7. Devotion to our Blessed Mother. The three Hail Marys we say at night will help us in a special way.
Woven into these means are humility, and its immediate consequence, sincerity. If the dumb devil gets inside a soul, he ruins everything. On the other hand, if he is cast out immediately, everything turns out well; we are happy, and life goes forward properly. Let us always be brutally sincere, but in a good-mannered way.
Go to spiritual direction with your soul wide open. Don't close it because, I repeat, the dumb devil will get in, and it is difficult to get him out again. Tell first what you would not like to be known.

This gift - chastity - is granted to those who asked for it. Our humble petition will be answered through the intercession of our Lady, Mater Pulchrae Dilectionis, Mother of Fair Love.
