Fear is a normal response to frightening things. It is not invalid, but it is unnecessary.
Although you may not like its appearance, a snake behind a glass is not fearsome. You would be perfectly safe to lie down and fall asleep with your back to the glass, because the snake cannot reach you.
The terrors you fear in the future cannot touch you today. Like the protective glass between you and a serpent in an enclosure, time is your protector in the moment you are in. For this present day, the future has no hold on you and no power to harm. Fear of the future is unnecessary, because “now” is where you live. Live in your present, and leave your future to the Lord.
