Doubt and Disgust

One Sunday it was discussed how Jehovah became disgusted with the Israelites. They repeatedly doubted him. Yet he cared for them. The evidence was abundant. He freed them from slavery, saved them by parting the Red Sea and provided for their basic human needs. Desiring more, demanding immediate gratification, the Israelites expressed the desire to return to Egypt. Jehovah became enraged with disgust. Often have I doubted your affections for me.
