Over the years, I have looked at tattoos with interest but I have never seen a tattoo that I was interested in having on my body. I have a niece that has several tattoos from her Olympic contests and my youngest daughter recently got one. And while they are nice, they are not something that I am interested in.

Then, I saw a music video from a Christian band, and I noted that they all had tattoos in Hebrew on their forearms. The Hebrew spelled out the various names of God as found in the Old Testament.

How cool! When I saw it, I knew that I had finally found the one thing that I would like to have tattooed on my body, one of the names for God in Hebrew.

I selected one from the more than 2 dozen names for God which are found in the Old Testament; El Shaddai. Since I belong to God, it seemed only natural to have His name tattooed on my body. Plus, it gives me an opportunity to witness to others about God.
