These holy beads...

Once I saw a rosary made in a prison camp of the most precious material to be found there, namely bread-crumbs. The fact that a starving soldier had denied himself the bread necessary to survival in order to fashion a Rosary out of it speaks more eloquently for the value of these holy beads than volumes of pious books can do. ~Joachim Cardinal Meisner

Dear Lord, please forgive me for the times I've taken "these holy beads" for granted and neglected to pray them. Amen.
