Description

A prayer rope is a cord with many knots, which is employed by Christians to count the number of times one has prayed the Jesus Prayer or, occasionally, other prayers. The use of the prayer rope makes it possible to pray the Jesus Prayer unceasingly and without distraction, and it helps to overcome temptations in one's spiritual struggle in order to fulfill God's commandments. We were created by God and for God and with Him only can we be fulfilled, in every good sense of the word. God is our parent, and our closest neighbor, and our joy, and our comfort, and our patience, and our perseverance, and our repentance, and our tears, and our prayer, and our love, and our freedom, and our happiness, and our health, and our food, and our drink, and our clothing, and our future, and our goal, and our strength, and―all things ours. It is up to us only to have a good intention, to use the gift of freedom in order to build union with God (through prayer) and to struggle in that direction, while everything else is an act of God's grace, which cooperates with us.
