When a future-oriented worry assails you, capture it and disarm it by suffusing the Light of My Presence into that mental image. Say to yourself, “Jesus will be with me then and there. With His help, I can cope!” Then, come home to the present moment, where you can enjoy Peace in My Presence.
Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?”- LUKE 12:22–26
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”- DEUTERONOMY 31:6
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.- 2 CORINTHIANS 10:5______________________________________________________________
I often can catch myself in this situation and I have never thought about it this way before. When I think about the future, sometimes I worry that things will not go as planned or I fear that I will fail. This situations are irrelevant to my life because those "thoughts" I am having, exclude my growing relationship with God.
With God in control we shall not worry. He knows our life path and we do not need to fret about the future because He is with us always.
