This bracelet is made with a bead mix that I call "manawa" which means "all power comes from within". I like this bead mix because it reminds me that I am in control of my own life. This bracelet has the word FAITH on it to remind you to keep your faith. God has everything under control and you need to have faith in him. I hope this bracelet reminds you that you are such a powerful woman and to keep your faith in God strong. All pre-made shopabbylynn bracelets are made with high-quality clear stretch bracelet string. I do not recommend stretching these bracelets with the intention of seeing how far they can stretch, you should always be careful with your jewelry.
