Lately I have been struggling with Fear and Worry over several different things. I have been trying to look up passages on Fear and Worry so that I can go over them and remind myself of what God's word says about Fear and Worry.
Here is something I found on Worry.
Therefore I say unto you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you put on. Is life more than food, and the body more than clothing?" Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"
"Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?"
"So why do you worry about clothing, Condsider the lillies of the field, how they grow, they neither toil nor spin.""And yet I say unto you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these"
"Now if God clothes the grass and field which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothes you, O you of little faith!"
Therefore do not worry, say "What shall we eat?" or "What shall we drink?" or "What shall we wear?"
For all these things the Gentiles seek...your Heavenly Father KNOWS that you need these things.
"But seek first the kingdom of God and his richeousness, and ALL OF THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU"
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about it's own things".
I hope that maybe this will help you as well.
If you have anything that may help with Fear and Worry please feel free to post it. I'll be refering back to this post over the next few months.

Matthew 6:34 (from The Message)
"Give you 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."
Amen! Yet ANOTHER great verse that I am so grateful that somebody made me memorize, I have to pray it frequently. I LOVE having my kids memorize verses, it is so applicable in their adult lives.
God bless you today Amy as you share God's word, may God be glorified in the sharing of His word that you do so well.
With Love.
I know its hard, remember how I had that BIG decision to make and was worrying about that? Pray, pray, pray... at least then you are doing something productive.
