Ask anyone on this planet questions such as these: "What do you fear?" (daily, or for the future), "When do you feel afraid?" (specific times), "Have you ever felt terrified?" (a horrible memory from the past), and you will get a wide variety of heartfelt answers. There will be many living with exactly the same fears; others will have fears and anxieties unique to them - situations that wouldn't bother other people. (We are all different and should respect each other).
But the one true God, the Creator of this world, is someone you can talk to about your fears and worries, even though you cannot see Him. It's called prayer. Praying is just telling Him what's on your mind, asking for His help and guidance, and remembering to thank Him for the good things He provides. His Word, the Bible, was written by a number of people with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Praying to the God you can't see gets results that you can see. All you need is faith.
Below are a selection of Bible verses which may be of help to you.
