Let go of your worries. Stop being so negative. Both worrying and negativity cause more stress and tension and anxiety in your life than there needs to be. You are worrying about the future and what you are planning and what you think might happen. Stop with the "what ifs." Just stick with God. Really it will be alright. Keep communicating with him constantly about what is going on in your life. Telling Him your thoughts brings you closer to Him, and helps you to see things in a more positive outlook. You also have to listen and be alert for what He is trying to tell you as well.
He knows you have to "make plans" for the future, He just doesn't want you to sit around and waste time worrying about them. Plan them and then step back. Don't keep harping to yourself about how it could go wrong or anything of the sort. Don't forget that He is always right beside you. He promises to always be there. He knows that it is difficult for us humans to control our minds and our thoughts. We as followers have to learn to reign our mind in. He is there to help us. We can dream on, but He is the one who is truly in control. His Presence is greater than anything you can dream or imagine, just lean on Him. Put a smile on your face. And go out into the world shining His light on others. Be Positive!
He continued this subject with his disciples. “Don’t fuss about what’s on the table at mealtimes or if the clothes in your closet are in fashion. There is far more to your inner life than the food you put in your stomach, more to your outer appearance than the clothes you hang on your body. Look at the ravens, free and unfettered, not tied down to a job description, carefree in the care of God. And you count far more. “Has anyone by fussing before the mirror ever gotten taller by so much as an inch? If fussing can’t even do that, why fuss at all? Walk into the fields and look at the wildflowers. They don’t fuss with their appearance—but have you ever seen color and design quite like it? The ten best-dressed men and women in the country look shabby alongside them. If God gives such attention to the wildflowers, most of them never even seen, don’t you think he’ll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you?
Ephesians 3:20-21 (MSG)
God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us.
Glory to God in the church!
Glory to God in the Messiah, in Jesus!
Glory down all the generations!
Glory through all millennia! Oh, yes!
