Love always trusts...

Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Is trust the root of protects, hopes, perseveres?  In other words, can I protect something that I don't trust?  Can I hope or offer hope in something I don't trust?  Can I really persevere without trust?

What does love trust in?  In the likelihood of something turning out the way I want it to?  In the innate goodness of another person?  In my own ability to hold on to it?  ...I'm guessing that in order to do all of these things (or any of them), I have to ultimately trust in something else...something other than these things.
