Last August, I shared on our blog that we had decided to name our daughter Selah. This was such a special moment for various reasons. A couple of months ago, I began to consider whether or not I was making the right choice based on a conversation I had with a Ethiopian gentleman. After continuing to give it further consideration and talking to some great friends, we've decided that in some way, her first name or middle name will be Selah.
In honor of the announcement of her name last August, I've created a really special glass tile necklace with the word Selah on it. The packaging is pretty awesome because it shares our story of how God arrested us out of our middle-class little bubble that we had made and broke our hearts for adoption and Ethiopia.
At the end of the little card that also serves as the packaging for the necklace, we ask you very candidly:
So...what’s the Selah in your life?
What do you feel God nudging you to do?
What has He been speaking to you? Have you acted?
If not, what’s been holding you back? Selah.
Perhaps it's not adoption but what I know for sure is that God has something for every person to do that will stretch us beyond our comfort, causing total reliance on Him. Ours was this adoption.....seriously, what's yours?
Purchase the necklace here for yourself or a friend. What a great reminder as you wear it that God calls each of us to something bigger than ourselves.
P.S. For a limited time, if you enter the word ZUMBA in the coupon code at checkout, you will receive 40% off the cost of the necklace. I love a deal! Don't you?

The name Selah has such special meaning and this post is making me think. God has put something front and center in my heart that I can't ignore.
