Paul foresaw the struggle ahead

The lord said 'do not worry about tomorrow.' But he never said 'do think about , do not plan, or do not prepare for tomorrow. ' Some people misunderstand his words, and become that silly monk who only knock the bell for today. I act like this sometime.
Paul did not do this. He thought about the upcoming trip to Jerusalem, he foresaw the struggle ahead, he prepared himself for the trip, he prayed and presented the trip to the God.
So, do not worry about tomorrow, do not fear about tomorrow. Plan for tomorrow, prepare for tomorrow, pray for tomorrow, expect tomorrow. For the God will be walking with you tomorrow, as he has been walking with you now and in the past.
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.
Bible verses:
Dear brothers and sisters, I urge you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to join in my struggle by praying to God for me. Do this because of your love for me, given to you by the Holy Spirit. Pray that I will be rescued from those in Judea who refuse to obey God. Pray also that the believers there will be willing to accept the donation I am taking to Jerusalem. Then, by the will of God, I will be able to come to you with a joyful heart, and we will be an encouragement to each other. Romans 15:30-32 NLT
