Fear & Bedtime
💧 Fear beside 1 Samuel 23:26
When fear is loud, 1 Samuel 23:26 is a sentence you can borrow. “Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain; and David hurried to get away for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men surrounded David and his men to take them.” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.

Say 1 Samuel 23:26 out loud once, then tell one person in the house what feeling it names.
Parent tip
If the feeling is bigger than a verse, stay in the room. 1 Samuel 23:26 is a companion, not a fix-it line. The other two verses are for a second night if this one is enough.
