I know you have heard of the story of the little birds resting peacefully under their mother's wings while the storm passes their nest up on a branch of the swaying tree. They have peace because they trust the mother bird. The little birds knew their mom. They knew their mom can protect them but that's not all. They also knew that she will. They knew her character.
Know the person first and then you will be able to trust him to the extent of what you discovered about him.
Search about God's character first then after that say you trust Him because that is the only time that you have really place your trust in Him.
Faith is not blind. It rests on hard evidence. Discover the evidence and you will have faith.
Know whom you are putting your trust into. Know whom you are placing your life into. Find out what He is saying about Himself and see if it corresponds exactly to what He is doing. If you found Him trustworthy, that is the only time you will experience peace in the midst of the storm because at that very moment that you found the truth about Him, you will be compelled to trust Him.
The moment you realized that one plus one equals two, no one in the world will be able to make you think otherwise.
When you found Him true to His words, you are compelled to believe.
You will know that His wings will cover you. He will protect you.
Know Him. Trust. Peace.
