Fear & Bedtime
🪔 Fear beside Deuteronomy 4:10
When fear is loud, Deuteronomy 4:10 is a sentence you can borrow. “the day that you stood before Yahweh your God in Horeb, when Yahweh said to me, “Assemble the people to me, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children.”” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.

Say Deuteronomy 4:10 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. Deuteronomy 4:10 is a companion, not a fix-it line. The other two verses are for a second night if this one is enough.
