This person is not asking about CP, so why are you pursing this argument yet again.blessedstar

TimPerfect prayer is as blessedstar said. Its the intent of the sould and love of the heart toward God.What is the perfect prayer? The Our Father, during Mass, the Mass, in a state of grace, CP, groanings in tongues? I say the Our Father as commanded. What do you all think? To the OP, any and all prayer is heard. I’m a stickeler for details during prayer at times, but don’t let it get the best of you. It is about intentions.
Wouldn’t a perfect prayer be one that conforms to the Will of God, despite ourselves at times even? Tim
You know perfectly well what you are doing. You don’t like what I have had to say about CP and you don’t like what others have had to say about CP nor do you like what the CAF apologists have had to say about CP whch have stated it as dangerous. If you don’t like it and you have certain ‘feelings’ because you don’t like it then ignore all that people have had to say about the topic of CP, you choose what you do.
There are erroneous methods people use to pray of which CP has been noted. It has been expounded by the Apologists on this site.
One night I was lying in bed and something had infested my thoughts. This was before I came back to the Church. I was bothered by this unknown greatly and the thought of praying to St. Michael and God came into mind. I asked to know the truth. I meant about a particulair matter, but a few weeks later I had an illumination that turned my life around. The bible was put in my hand within minutes of this experience and I read Proverbs for the first time. I recognized it as the truth and read outloud for 1/2 an hour in perfect joy. I faced alot of truths that night, some painful. That prayer was imperfect to say the least, but I only had to convey the request and the Lord fulfilled the request beyond anything I could ever imagine. For me, at that time, without deep thought, a perfect prayer was made by God out of what came from me. He perfected my request to conform to His Will. I only had to ask and I received. I now tend to prefer to K.I.S.S., keep it simple stupid. I’m an army dog, what can I say.
TimI personally don’t think prayer needs to be perfect all the time. It’s a conversation with God which is only possible through God. The Holy Spirit makes up for our deficiencies during prayer. But if you don’t think that that is enough, you can always ask the saints to help you out as well.
