Worry is a terrible thing. It is always getting in the way of thoughts and focus on God. When you worry, you are not trusting God. God tells us not to worry. He created the earth and He created time. He made time the way He did, in small segments, so that we, as humans, could manage. If days were longer than they are, then we wouldn't be able to handle it and we would get stressed out and give up so easily. God provides enough grace for each segment of time that we live in. It is our fault if we begin to get weighed down, because that means we are thinking too far ahead and worrying, adding multiple days' worth of to-do's to our mind. We can get rid of that, by purely trusting. Say aloud, "I trust you, Jesus!" It works! I've done it before! You just have to give it up to Him. He is in control, never you. When we think too far ahead our brain gets jumbled and we trip and fall. He will help us right back up when we return to His ways of trusting. Trusting is the way we remain in His Presence.
Matthew 6:34 (MSG)
Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don't get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes.
Psalm 62:7-8 (MSG)
My help and glory are in God
—granite-strength and safe-harbor-God—
So trust him absolutely, people;
lay your lives on the line for him.
God is a safe place to be.
