To me, truly trusting Him means: calmness & chaos all at once. Let me explain. Several times when the Holy Ghost speaks to me I have ignored Him. I haven't trusted Him...my way is better...or so I think at that time.
To trust Him means I must become completely vulernable to the unknown; to let go of the reigns and let Him lead me where He wants me to go and do. To know that it won't be easy, I won't have the answers, but I will have the BEST guide ever...if I only heed to Him first.
Once I overcome the chaos of emotions that "letting go" brings (especially when His promptings tell me the opposite of my selfish mind); it is only then can I feel the completely calmness that ONLY He can bring.
Truly trusting God means surrendering your will to his. It means devouring his word and believing in his promises. Doubt and fear come to us by the enemy of our souls, the devil. The best example of trusting God is found in the Book Of Job. And ask the Lord to give you faith and he will!
For me truly trusting god is just to choose the easiest way to live. It doesn't mean it's bad. I really admire people who can believe whithout knowing. It must be nice.
I trust because He is the only one you can trust. He is the only steadfast one in the universe... His love never fails, and whenever something goes wrong, life has always taken a different road, which in the end was a blessing.. how could I not trust Him?

"How does one get to that place?". One day at a time. But, the journey grows sweeter every day.

That's just my two pennies.

Real faith or the A,B,C's of faith is Action base on Belife supported by Confidence of God ability to keep his word
And the best starting place to get to the Amen level of trust is to know Jesus rose from the tomb!
Thanks to all for your thoughts!
Trust him because he loves us and nothing can separate us the the love of God.
