Trusting... our biggest challenge?

I'm not exactly sure whether the the dizzy ,gaspy , frightened , pit in my stomach sensation sensation is that I get when something big is put on my plate but I do know that my first reaction is: 
what about _______ ? when will we next see______ ? what about our _______ ? fill in the blanks. I have this problem a lot whether I actually voice my fears doubts and anxiety or I ponder them in my mind I always feel foolish and guilty  for not praying and fulfilling 

Philippians 4:6-7 (KJV)

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

This is one of the memory verses from home-school.  One thing I really struggle with is worrying about school due to when I was born I will not be able to start high school till next year (I'll be 15)
and I constantly worry about graduating till I'm 19 I feel like by graduating then I'll waist a precious year that I could be using to serve GOD , my family , and community .  This is were I fail to trust God's plan for my life : if I'm to serve , God we'll enable me to serve, If I am to marry , God will enable me to marry, If I am to advance to becoming a CPM  (certified professional midwife ) God will enable me to advance. I also struggle with trusting GOD to keep my family safe when we are parted! (As if I can keep then safe!) I hope you are encouraged or reminded of God's promises and command to trust .
Even just writing this encourages me to be at peace and obey God's calling to trust~
