Worry borrows tomorrow’s troubles and pays interest on them today. Jesus spoke into this directly, pointing to birds and flowers and a Father who already knows what we need. These passages gently loosen the grip of "what if" and return us to the day in front of us.
Matthew 6:25-27
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit? If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?
