That is one important reason I wouldn't incorporate the Apostle's Creed into my personal devotion. After laying aside the rosary and repetitious prayer, it was very refreshing to know I could talk to God in my own words.
And being led by the Spirit is very awesome. Sometimes you will go into prayer and end up praying for people that you had no idea needed prayer and pray about things you did not have on your mind to begin with. Prayer is healing. Repetitious prayer is not.
