touching the beads
feeling their coolness,
their varied textures,
our heads bowed in prayer
silent, open, waiting
fingering the prayers
those lifted up, raised
offering God our praise
filling our cup
laying the cares down
seeking healing
coming humbly to Him
with our prayers
the Savior of our lives
