đ⨠NEW SONG: âNON-VAIN REPETITIONâ
Jesus warned against vain repetition â not prayer that repeats.
That distinction matters⌠a lot.
Some people hear Christâs words in Matthew 6 and assume God dislikes repeated prayers, written prayers, or Christians praying together in unison. But Scripture itself flatly contradicts that reading.
The Psalms are repetitive by design. Psalm 136 repeats the same line over and over â âHis mercy endures foreverâ â sometimes mid-sentence. Israel prayed it communally. Loudly. Publicly. On purpose.
Even Jesus repeats His own prayer in Gethsemane.
The issue was never repetition.
The issue was emptiness.
I can tell my wife âI love youâ a thousand times and mean it every single time.
And I can also say the exact same words while halfway out the door, distracted, hollow, and rushed.
Same words.
Very different heart.
đś âNon-Vain Repetitionâ is a song about what Christ actually condemned â and what He clearly did not. Itâs about the Rosary as meditation on the life of Christ, about communal prayer, written prayer, and why love naturally repeats itself without becoming meaningless.
