Matthew 6:28-32
28: And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30: Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
31: Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32: For your Heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

20th Verse of the Tao Te Ching
Give up learning and you will be free from all your cares.
What is the difference between yes and no?
What is the difference between good and evil?
Must I fear what others fear?
Should I fear desolation when there is abundance?
Should I fear darkness when that light is shining everywhere?
In spring, some go to the park and climb the terrace, but I alone am drifting, not knowing where I am.
Like a newborn babe before it learns to smile, I am alone, without a place to go.
Most people have too much;
I alone seem to be missing something.
Mine is indeed the mind of the ignoramus in its unadulterated simplicity.
I am but a guest in this world.
While others rush about to get things done, I accept what is offered.
I alone seem foolish, earning little, spending less.
Other people strive for fame;
I avoid the limelight, preferring to be left alone.
Indeed, I seem like an idiot: No mind, no worries.
I drift like a wave on the ocean.
I blow as aimless as the wind.
All men settle down in their grooves;
I alone am stubborn and remain outside.
But wherein I am most different from others is in knowing to take sustenance from the Great Mother!
Allow yourself to meld into the perfection of the universe you live in. You don't need another thing to be happy; it is all being provided for you right here, right now. Be in this moment, and free yourself of striving for something more or someone else. This is a mind exercise that will put you in touch with the peace of the Tao. Affirm: All is perfect. God's love is everywhere and forgets no one. I trust in this force to guide me, and I am not allowing ego to enter now. Notice how free you feel when you relax into this no-fears, no-worries attitude.
-Wayne Dyer, Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life
Be in the present moment, not worrying about the past nor the future. For when you do this, living in the moment and making it the best that it can be, you pull the future you desire towards you. In each moment create who you are in reference to who you are with or what you are doing by being self-centered; finding your higher self and centering on that. Abraham points out in the books by Ester and Jerry Hicks that looking at our life as pulling in our oars and just allowing life to take us down the river at minimal effort. Because everything we want is, surprisingly, downstream not upstream. Remember this, when we stress and worry...that very action says "We do not trust or have faith in God, the Universe, Source, Life or whatever you refer to it as. Fear can not exist in the moment, only love. Future and past is where fear resides. The Lily is love...
"That is why faith is so powerful. If you have faith that all your needs will be met, then, technically you have no needs at all. And this is the truth, of course, and it will become your experience, and so your faith will be "justified". Yet all you will have done is change your perception...Yet the true Master lives outside the space of expectation. He expects nothing more than what "shows up", because he already knows he has everything. And so he happily accepts whatever part of Everything it is that shows up in any particular moment. He knows that it is all perfect, that life is perfection, playing itself out. Under these circumstances, trust is not required."
