Daily Gratitude Year 13 - Day 259: Today, I am grateful for Selah.

"Selah"

Selah is the space between prayer and answer,

between grief and healing,

Between surrender and revelation.

It's not an empty space;

It's sacred stillness.

It's the kind of posture

where your soul leans in to hear God's whisper.

It says:

I will breathe even in the uncertainty. I will worship before I see the outcome.

I will trust the stillness is not silence but sanctification.

(unknown author)

The word, Selah, is a bit of a mystery word. It is found most often in the Psalms, typically with a note "to the Choirmaster." Some believe it means to "pause and reflect." Either is good.

This scripture is a nice compliment:

"In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly." Psalm 5:3

Today, I am grateful for Selah.
