Fear & Bedtime
🌾 Afraid beside Joshua 10:2
When afraid is loud, Joshua 10:2 is a sentence you can borrow. “they were very afraid, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.
