For each
bracelet:
1 leather strip about 10
inches in length
You can substitute just
about anything that will
form a bracelet for the
leather.
1 Yellow (or gold) bead
1 Black bead
1 Red bead
1 White bead
1 Green bead
At
approximately 4 inches
from one end of the
strip, tie a single not.
Now thread each bead in
the order shown, that is,
gold, black, red, white,
and green, onto the
strip. Tie a single not
in the strip so that the
beads will not fall off
(at about 4 inches from
the opposite end). Tie
the bracelet around your
wrist and you have
finished.
Now for
the crux of the bracelet:
The gold stands for
heaven, the black for
sin, the red for the
sacrifice of Christ, the
white for purity (his and
ours when he becomes Lord
of our lives), the green
to remind us that we need
to grow in Christ.
