Unveiling Our True Selves to God
In Exodus 34, we encounter a unique story about Moses. When he came down from Mount Sinai after speaking with God and getting the second set of tablets bearing the Ten Commandments, his face shone radiantly. This divine glow was a physical sign of his close communion with the Almighty. However, it frightened the Israelites, so Moses covered his face with a veil among the people.
And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him. - Exodus 34:35

Book Review: The Merlin Spiral Trilogy
If you love Arthurian legends and a good, clean read, you’ll love The Merlin Spiral Series. This Christian fantasy series is free of swear words, intimate scenes, and any other questionable content. Based on the legends of King Arthur, there is a lot of violence and death, so it may not be suitable for the really young and those who are troubled by war scenes. Also, because of the setting, there is an element of magic from the different enemy factions, so keep that in mind.
