STOP BEING AFRAID! A TRUE STORY

I gained admission into the university Late 2017, after my registration, I boarded a vehicle from Katsina that would take me down to Kaduna.

Our journey began, after few kilometers, I became very restless due to the rate of speed at which the driver drove, I told the driver to reduce how he drove fast as I panicked with fear, funny enough, I didn't get any reply from him, as he continued driving. My worries became intense as I feared I was going to die, I was so restless and breathed heavily(anyone would notice I wasn't alright).

We got to a point and I pleaded with the driver to stop so I'd ease my self, he stopped and I went out, it was a lie, I never wanted to pee, I only wanted to relieve my self of how I was feeling at that point, so I went into the bush, stood for a while as then came out as though I 'peed'.

We continued and I noticed other passengers were calm and I was the only one panicking, at some point, while I panicked more, the driver increased the rate of speed at which he drove, even more, just to get to me, he will laugh with all joy while I panicked, it was funny to him but wasn't funny to me.

I quickly said a short prayer to God and we continued, I became calm and stopped panicking, I was so peaceful that the driver stopped making a mockery out of my fears. That was how we continued until I got to Kaduna safely. 

This is what I'm saying in essence...

• Your fears take control over you when you worry so much about them
• Your fears become powerful when you give in, panic over them
• Take your fears to God and see how He calms you through the storm
• The devil gets at you when you worry over your fears (The driver wouldn't have stopped making a mockery out of me if I kept panicking, that's how it is with the devil).
