In Psalm 31, David's phrase describing God's ‘shining face’ may sound more like a happy parent cradling their newborn in their arms, or a parent beaming with pride at their child’s piano recital. And while the word certainly does include this element of joy, it’s much more than a happy glance in your direction from God. In fact, it’s used in Scripture in much fuller way that may have imagined.
