Psalms 22
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so far from saving me,
so far from my cries of anguish?
2 My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,
by night, but I find no rest.[b]

3 Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;
you are the one Israel praises.[c]
4 In you our ancestors put their trust;
they trusted and you delivered [saved] them.
5 To you they cried out and were saved;
in you they trusted and were not put to shame. //NOTE: I added [saved]

As we trust in God, He will guide us in the ways of salvation.

2 Corinthians 5:5 Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.
The fact that we have and know we have, beyond any doubt, we the indwelling Holy Spirit, there is very little "trusting" needed.
The problem is there are "Christians", in tittle only, who are not experiencing the Spirit within them, so is He even there?

I would sum it up like this

Rom_4:21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

abraham believed the promise of God that he would give him an eternal seed

If you believe the promise of Christ that he would give you eternal life through forgiveness of seed you are trusting on him like Abraham did God
