As a Christian, I often struggle with staying focused when I pray. My mind seems to easily wander until I find myself thinking about things I have to do, things I want to do, things in the past, etc. I must also confess that, if I am tired, I even fall asleep. Many other Christians I talk to confess to the same experiences. At times, our minds seem to have minds of their own.
As we move our fingers over the beads as we pray, we activate our sense of touch. This act helps us retain our focus on prayer and, if our mind wanders, it helps remind us of our intention to pray.
