DONT TREAT GOD LIKE A DIVINE VENDING MACHINE

Mt 6:7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.

Some religions today exercise mindless chanting. Likewise there are denominations which advocating repetitiously praying so many “Our Fathers and so many “Hail Marys, which is directly in conflict with what Jesus teaches here. Pray thoughtfully. Words are only relevant in so much as they have meaning. Don’t use them like magical incantations.
