Fear & Bedtime
🪔 Afraid beside Genesis 32:7
When afraid is loud, Genesis 32:7 is a sentence you can borrow. “Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed. He divided the people who were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies;” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.
