I think this is the main motto of what it means to be a Christian is... To believe that Jesus is the son of God, to accept him as our Saviour because of the work he has done on the cross (the forgiveness of sin, an atoning sacrifice which we could never bring to God ourselves), and to confess our sin and turn form them... I may have messed up the ABC order some of are used to... But I think more often than not, in the early stages of our Christian walk, we were hardly told about going forward in life by trusting Him in all things.
But trust can be hard! Because our human nature wants to be in control. Even though we’ve been granted self-control through the Holy Spirit, we literally need to rely on God to be in control of the rest. To trust in Him and have faith, always.
