🪨 Afraid beside Deuteronomy 1:21
When afraid is loud, Deuteronomy 1:21 is a sentence you can borrow. “Behold, Yahweh your God has set the land before you. Go up, take possession, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has spoken to you. Don’t be afraid, neither be dismayed.”” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.
