Does faith exclude anxiety and fear? As it turns out, it does not. Abraham, the "father of faith" had them. Abram's promise from God of a son and heir was a LONG time in the fulfilling. Abram's expressed his frustration with this to God, and rather than getting angry, God offered him reassurance that his promise still stood. It is Abram's acceptance of this promise, after expressing his anxiety/fear, that God credited to him as righteousness.
