Sadness & Loss
🪨 Weeping beside Isaiah 15:5
When weeping is loud, Isaiah 15:5 is a sentence you can borrow. “My heart cries out for Moab! Her nobles flee to Zoar, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for they go up by the ascent of Luhith with weeping; for on the way to Horonaim, they raise up a cry of destruction.” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.

Two-minute challenge
Say Isaiah 15:5 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. Isaiah 15:5 is a companion, not a fix-it line. The other two verses are for a second night if this one is enough.
