Worship Replaces Worry

I find that the fear in me can be easily overcome by praise. Makes sense. First of all, singing a praise song out loud kinda takes up some brain space that the fear was trying to access and secondly, if my focus is on God... whom shall I fear?
I also realized that my bouts with fear are indicative that I am too focused on my body and not on God. Really the prime example of looking at your own belly button instead of realizing that you have a Creator and your purpose is to worship Him.

Why so downcast, Oh my soul?
Put your hope in God
And bless the Lord, Oh my soul!

Bless the Lord!
He's the lifter of my countenance.
Bless the Lord!
He's the lifter of my head.
