Lessons Wood Turning

I was in the grocery store and some kids made fun of my bald head. I though to myself, God will take care of these little rats. But they just climbed in a minivan and off they went. Why didn't God teach them a lesson, like he did in the Old Testament?

And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head. And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them. -- 2 Kings 2:23-24
