The Jesus Prayer

I love the rosary and Jesus prayer
t. Orthodox

Matthew 6:6-8

Remember not to use vain repetitions, user.

Eternal Latin here. I've been praying the Jesus prayer for about 4 or 5 years now. It's a nice little prayer, I don't see why it's causing so much butthurt. There's certainly no heresy in the words themselves. I don't think it's as powerful as the Rosary, but it's good to have a prayer I can easily blurt out whenever the urge strikes me. For all the problems the Eastern Church has, the Jesus prayer is not one of them.

The Jesus prayer isn't vain repetitions

Just remember not to do them.
