I had come weary and confused, as I dressed up that day I wondered how I was ever going to defeat the problem that was starring in my face, I knew I had to drop it at His feet so I brushed faster, got ready and started my journey.

Fear had bullied me so much, I did not even know what to do again, it had stopped me from applying for an opportunity I was so sure God was telling me to go for, it crippled me when I got that impression to start a meeting for girls in secondary school, It had laughed at me when I tried to exercise what was left of my faith in getting a first class that God told me I could have. Enough was enough, since I could not fight fear, since I could not dodge him or find a way to tackle him, I decided to report him to the One who sits on the throne and so, with report in hand- I practiced how I would beg God;

'Dear God, I beg you in the name of God- take this fear from me so I can live in the fullness of who you have called me to be' Ugh it sounded weird - I tried again

'God of heavens and earth, kill this spirit of fear that I know you have not given to me'

Oh gosh, what was I saying- could spirits even die? Wasn’t fear a spirit?

I could not even find the words that would extinguish this fear. Suddenly my legs got cold- my hands started to shake-I knew that fear was around the corner, he wanted to stop me from going into the presence - I could already hear the questions he would come and ask me 'Ah ah the whole you? - you're afraid?" 'God would be so disappointed in you' and so instead of walking I ran , I ran into the presence and as soon as I entered and was sure that I was alone, I dropped my bag and carried my report card, adjusted my clothes , cleared my throat and proceeded - I said hi to the angels before I entered. My hand on my heart, I went closer and closer and closer- forgetting why I came, now in the presence of I AM, I bowed. 

It was as though seconds were hours that turned to a thousand years before simplifying into a moment as I bowed at His feet- I could not help but open my eyes and when I looked at my side- I saw fear! What was fear doing here? I observed closer and realized that fear was bowing, fear was bowing as well! 

'Fear' I whispered and called out, he looked at me with a troubled face.

'This girl, are you not scared? Can't you see who's presence we're in' He ignored me and bowed lower.

Fear was afraid!

It clicked, it clicked. They bow, they all bow, they could not help but bow- I thanked I AM and ran out in laughter.
