I don't get it.

It certainly hasn't put my life worries to bed.

Strange message.
Where does it say that a godless existence means one will be carefree.

The worrying obviously refers to the topic of God, meaning rather than worrying about pleasing God and worrying about suffering the consequences if you misstep, don't worry about that and enjoy your life.

I know people that are so heavenly minded they are no earthly good. They spend so much of their life's effort on God, it sometimes seems they miss life.

Not that an ad is going to change their minds.. to me the actual message of the ad doesn't matter, it's simply raising awareness that atheists exist and that's ok.
