My Fear is This

[scapularkid8]

Whenever I’m in a state of mortal sin (i.e. now) I always have an incredible fear of being hit by a car and dying before I have the chance to Confess at the end of the week. A couple questions on this are:
-Will God send me to hell if I’ve internally converted, asked for forgiveness, and resolved not to do it again, and made plans to go to the next available Confession time but I don’t get to confess because I die?!
-How can I not worry so much during my fallen state. I tend to tear myself apart worrying about dying and death when this happens, which I guess is good to some extent (attrition) but God never ever wants me to be in so much distress (granted, I did bring it upon myself, but He doesn’t want me to suffer so much…right?).

Fear and worry never helps anything or anyone.

Redirect this wasted energy into striving to avoid sin as best as possible, especially mortal sin.

Remember God wants you to be saved, even more so than you yourself could possibly want it. He’s not hovering around waiting to send a car to get you in that (I hope short) interval between mortal sin and confession. I don’t think He gets His kicks from doing that sort of thing.

Remember God wants you to be saved, even more so than you yourself could possibly want it. I very much doubt He’s hovering around you waiting to send a car to get you in that (I hope short) interval between mortal sin and confession. Seems most unlikely that He would get His kicks from doing that sort of thing.
