God Hid His Face, Then Loved His Children

For Date Night, we had Papa John’s Pizza, and watched the movie, “The Flintstones”. Then, we watched an episode of each of these: “Charmed”, “Knight Rider”, “CSI”, and “Quantum Leap”.

I have heard people say that the God of the Old Testament is an angry God. Although, I disagree. I have found in the Old Testament where God is merciful and forgiving. For example, in Isaiah 54:8, it says “in a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the Lord thy Redeemer.”

I credit the Book of Mormon, 3 Nephi 22:8, for pointing me to that scripture where the same verse is written. Without the Book of Mormon, I might not have found that verse, but I am thankful that I have; and I know that my God always loves me, one of His children.
