Why worry? Simply believe God!
Psalm 91:1-11 gives good reason to not be afraid
when you make the Lord your refuge.
"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my
refuge.... and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."
"Surely He will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with His feathers, and
under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield and
rampart.
"You will not fear the terror of night, nor the
arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor
the plague that destroys at midday.
"A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand
at your right hand, but it will not come near you.
"You will only observe with your eyes and see
the punishment of the wicked. If you make the Most High your dwelling... even
the Lord, who is my refuge... then no harm will befall you, no disaster will
come near your tent. For He will command His angels to guard you in all your
ways."
