Has anybody here ever "read" or "recited" a prayer such as:
--The Lord's prayer, or The Our Father, or The Pater Noster
--
Psalm 23, 51, 91 or some other Psalm
--The Apostles' Creed
--The Jesus Prayer
--The Serenity Prayer
--The Prayer of St. Francis
--The Rosary
Do you think God hears and/or acknowledges written or recited prayer?
Do you think we should pray more in our own language than we do in our prayer language? or just the opposite? or pretty much half and half?
