I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.-John 16:33

" Yes, Lord. I will and I can." Princess courageously said and stood up. She then ran and open the main door of the castle.
But as she opened it a very cold wind welcomed her and the creepy noise of many voices continuously calling her name.
"Princess!"
"Princess."
"Princess."
"PRINCESS!" She tried to find who was calling her but the castle was so dark. The cold wind once again touched her and it caused her to shiver.
In her mind, she kept on repeating " Don't be afraid" and went around to witch on the light. When light filled the first floor of a castle she was puzzled to see countless masks of all facial expressions hanging on the wall. The masks started to move based on their expressions and repeatedly screaming her name. Still shocked Princess didn't notice the quick attack of a mask having a fearful expression and covered her face.
" NO!" She shouted and tried to remove the mask but it was so tight that if she will not be careful the flesh of her face will be removed too.
Another mask covered her, it was a hatred expression and followed by some more masks.
"No, Stop it."
The more she tried to remove it became tighter and the masks never stop covering her. She was already force-less and some drops of blood were already flowing down from her face.
" I beg you all to stop. I don't want anymore to wear any masks. I just want to be me. I want to simply love the real me." she bitterly sobs and continued to remove the masks.
"Princess." A soft voice called her and all the other voices left.
"Jesus."
"Did I tell you that I'm here and we can surpass all? Princess, can I help you? Will you allow me to help you remove these masks?"
"Yes, Jesus. Please come, I need You." Then she felt a warm hand caressing her face. He got her hand and together one by one they removed masks. When all masks were finally detached from her He wiped and healed her face. Princess embraced Him and cried on His shoulder.
"Shssssh... I'm very happy and proud of you Princess." He said while tapping her back.
"Jesus, Thank You so much for coming."
He sweetly smiled and responded.
"Thank you too for trusting me."
