28 Episode - How Worry, Control, and Fear Block God’s Peace in Your Life

Today Is Full: I Will Not Pack It With Tomorrow’s Worry.

Amanda Sharp

Today’s episode of the Still With Purpose Podcast dives deep into one of the most difficult spiritual practices for many believers: trusting God with today and releasing control of tomorrow.

“How much peace have you traded trying to control what God already promised to handle?”

In this conversation, Amanda & Christy explore fear, worry, anxiety, and future forecasting through a biblical lens. We unpack the powerful meaning of daily bread, why God refuses to give answers for tomorrow, and how trying to store up certainty actually creates more stress, suffering, and spiritual disconnection.

This episode speaks directly to anyone who:

• Struggles with anxiety, overthinking, or fear of the future
• Feels exhausted from trying to control outcomesIs stuck in people-pleasing, striving, or perfectionism
• Wants a deeper, more trusting relationship with God
• Is learning how to surrender worry and walk in faith daily

We discuss how worry is often rooted in control, pride, worthiness issues, and lack of trust—not just in God, but in ourselves.

Using real-life stories, scripture, and honest faith experiences, we show how peace is available when we stop living in tomorrow and fully step into today.

Key topics covered in this episode:

• What “daily bread” really means in the Bible
• Why God doesn’t answer tomorrow’s questions
• How fear and love cannot exist in the same space
• The cost of future anxiety on your spiritual and emotional health
• How suffering often comes from worrying about what hasn’t happened
• Why trusting God builds trust in yourself and others

How to stop striving and start living with peace and clarity

This episode is for anyone who wants less chaos, less fear, and more peace, faith, and alignment with God’s will.

Take a deep breath. Today is full. God is already here.
