Fear & Bedtime
💧 Fear beside Deuteronomy 13:4
When fear is loud, Deuteronomy 13:4 is a sentence you can borrow. “You shall walk after Yahweh your God, fear him, keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and you shall serve him, and cling to him.” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.

Parent tip
If the feeling is bigger than a verse, stay in the room. Deuteronomy 13:4 is a companion, not a fix-it line. The other two verses are for a second night if this one is enough.
