i totally agree, these christians are going to explode when they see this logic but then again "jesus christ is their savior" and they'd probably lie and say they never worry simply because they pray, HA!

You pray without ceasing. EXACTLY. When you pray, it's called Faith. You should have no worry. :)
Hebrews 11:17-19
People put their trust in different things. Some place faith in the Lord; others trust in themselves or another person. Faith can even be placed in relationships, money, or politics. Anytime we put absolute trust in something, we demonstrate faith. So, the question isn't, Do I have any faith? but rather, In what have I placed my faith? Looking at that question honestly will shake up your assumptions about your spiritual life.
An old saying explains, "Faith gives feet to belief." Simply put, this means that faith is the active expression of what you believe about God. If you have the idea that He sits in some far-off place called "heaven" and only halfheartedly listens to your prayers, then that will reveal itself in your day-to-day walk of faith. Your God will seem small, powerless, and disinterested. The result will be a string of seemingly unanswered prayers and a general sense of defeat.
If, on the other hand, you believe that God is right beside you, whispering in your ear, pouring out His Holy Spirit upon you - and that He is intimately familiar and concerned with the minutiae of your life - then such a belief will impact your faith walk. Prayer will be a joyful exchange between cherished friends, and the evidence of our heavenly Father's miraculous power will become commonplace in your daily life.
Weak faith says, "God can." Great faith says, "God will." But perfect faith - godly faith - says, "It's done." Your faith is your testimony.
Great Q*

If you worry, you pray for God to take the worry for you . When you pray for Gods` intervention and ask for His help , then you leave the " worry " you prayed about at the alter !! Forget it and let God handle it !! If you continue to worry , then you are demonstrating to God that you don`t have faith in Him to answer your prayer ! Most likely it will go unanswered without the faith !!

Why even pray? Surely this all powerful god could read your mind. Praying proves you don't believe he can do it. And that's probably why you worry.

I pray, and I don't worry. If I don't pray about something, then I worry.

It's human nature to worry so we pray to stop worrying and then we worry again. It's just the way it is. We are all sinners. Pray for forgiveness.

you pray so that God saves you from what you are worrying about. you still worry because God does not always respond.

The bible tells me: "do not be anxious for anything, but in all things, with prayer and thanksgiving, present your requests to God...and the peace of God will guard your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus."
That works for me.
