In her book "Discipline: The Glad Surrender," Elisabeth Elliot emphasizes the incompatibility of worry and trust. She argues that when one worries, they cannot truly trust in a greater plan or presence. This mindset reveals that anxiety and faith cannot coexist, as they represent opposing beliefs about how to handle life's uncertainties.

Elliot's perspective suggests that to embrace trust, individuals must let go of their worries. The inner conflict created by simultaneously holding onto anxiety and trying to maintain faith leads to a lack of peace and clarity. By prioritizing trust, one can move towards a more serene and confident approach to life's challenges.
