This is just a friendly poll to see how many of us actually pray what is commonly referred to as the Lord's prayer. Some call it the Disciple's prayer.
We don't need to go into all the "why's and why not's" in this thread. I am just curious as to what Christians from different church teachings do with this prayer. We all have different backgrounds and grew up or got saved in different types of churches that could have varied teachings on praying to our Father.
As I have said before - I use some elements of it in some form or other in probably most of my praying with my mind. I do not however repeat it or recite it word for word.
We are allowed to pray however our heart dictates to us when we speak to our Father and Lord so there is no "right or wrong answer".
This is NOT a public poll so your answer will be between you and your father.
This is the first time I have tried to create a poll so hopefully it will work.
The options are ( and you may come up with more of them too )
1) I always pray the prayer every day and I recite it word for word.
2) I use some elements of it in most of my praying in some form or other.
3) I never pray it word for word as it is written or have not for a long time.
