One could spend their life worrying about whether worry is a sin or not. It is easy to become distracted with the nitty-gritty of dos and don'ts, but because we have "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23) our aim is to grow closer to God rather than concentrate on our failures. In growing in relationship with God we discover a perfect love that deals with sin appropriately:
"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love." (1 John 4:18)
