Resist worry and choose peace.
Never say, “It is my nature to worry,” for I have given you a life that is carefree. Has worry brought you any blessings? I will take care of your tomorrow, as I have taken care of your today. Your relationship with me means that I will carry every burden that weighs you down, so that you can take my peace as your own. My love will carry you through this momentary difficulty. Beloved, you were created in my image—to look and sound like me. And worry was not a part of that plan, which is why you feel so terrible when you allow it to consume you. I want you to resist worry and choose peace. Worrying isn’t going to make things better. It pushes you far from faith and prevents you from feeling true peace in me. Rest with me in the green pastures of my peace and drink from the quiet brook of bliss. Lay your worries at my feet and allow me to replace them with my perfect peace.

Luke 12:28–29 The Passion Translation
“If God can clothe the fields and meadows with grass and flowers, can’t he clothe you as well, O struggling one with so many doubts? I repeat it: Don’t let worry enter your life. Live above the anxious cares about your personal needs.”
